BeyondMath, a leader in advanced engineering simulation, has raised £6.5 million in seed funding.
The London startup was founded by Alan Patterson and Darren Garvey, who worked together at Google and eBay and have decades of experience in artificial intelligence.
Its supercomputing platform is powered by a partnership with chipmaker NVIDIA, among the world’s most valuable companies.
The round was led by UP.Partners with significant participation from Insight Partners and InMotion Ventures, the investment arm of Jaguar Land Rover.
Its mission is to reshape engineering practices globally with its AI-driven multiphysics simulation platform.
“The NVIDIA DGX H200 is a game-changer for AI-driven simulation,” said Alan Patterson, CEO of BeyondMath. “With its robust computing power, we’re equipped to push the boundaries of what is possible in physics-based engineering.

“Current simulation tools are not only prohibitively expensive, requiring up to $50 million supercomputers that take days to process data, but they also demand PhD-level expertise.
“Our platform employs cutting-edge AI trained to decipher the core equations of the physical world, delivering a monumental leap in speed and cost.”
Carlo Ruiz, vice president of EMEA AI data center solutions at NVIDIA, added: “Accelerated computing is revolutionising industries by enabling unprecedented speed and accuracy in complex simulations.
“By deploying NVIDIA DGX H200 systems, BeyondMath is equipped to redefine physics-based engineering, training AI models at industrial scales to deliver groundbreaking solutions that can help customers increase efficiencies and speed innovation.”
