The company

Metagravity is a deep-tech start-up which is solving the concurrency problem in simulation for massive virtual worlds and games

Metagravity has worked from first principles to build distributed computing infrastructure that is limitless in its ability to scale, thus empowering creators to craft truly living, breathing worlds.

They have raised over $10m from leading investors and have a host of Tier 1 client evaluating their technology. The founding team is composed of seasoned entrepreneurs and innovators with decades-long experience in distributed systems, supercomputing, game engine development and AAA game production.

The company has immense upside potential and embraces bold, first-principles thinking in our approach to problem-solving.
