Founded in 2022 by AI veterans Alan Patterson and Darren Garvey, BeyondMath has built the world’s largest foundational physics model, capable of simulating phenomena from aerodynamics to thermal management.

Its customers include leading automotive, aerospace and electronics manufacturers and it has strategic partnerships with NVIDIA and AWS.

BeyondMath’s generative physics technology has applications across automotive, aerospace, electronics, data center design, and semiconductor manufacturing.

The new funding will support scaling commercial deployment and expanding research capabilities. The company plans to double its headcount this year while growing its customer base across Europe, the U.S. and Japan.

Speaking about the market need, BeyondMath CEO Alan Patterson said engineering teams require faster and more flexible simulation capabilities but currently lack the technology to meet these demands:

Generative physics introduces a fundamentally new approach to engineering, unlocking innovation across fields ranging from aerospace and automotive to data-centre design. We now have the capital and investor support to accelerate our research roadmap and scale commercial adoption. This could be the ChatGPT moment for physics.
