Draper Associates ( @Drapervc ) invested 1 million in this bold and forward thinking startup, and we committed within the hour. That company is now worth 8.7 billion. Oklo ( @oklo ) is using nuclear waste to power the planet for the next thousand years. They have permits to restart an abandoned nuclear reactor in Idaho. Their tech reuses 95% of the energy left in spent fuel and each reactor runs for decades on existing waste. Then they recycle it. Again. And again. We’ve backed Oklo in every single round, from the first check to their IPO. This is what we look for--bold, energy producing, earth saving, human life extending, security building, life enhancing startups.(Tim Draper)
