Nuclear's problem was never the technology. It was always delivery. Too large to site. Too slow to permit. Too far from where the demand actually is. Ports are electrifying their fleets and infrastructure and need power that can scale with them. AI data centers are starving for steady baseload. And when a hurricane tears through a coastal community, families and businesses can wait months for the grid to be rebuilt from scratch. As Kofi Asante put it: "There's over 3 billion people who live within an hour of the water." That is not a niche. That is the largest underserved energy market on the planet, running on fragile grid connections and high-emission generators because the existing infrastructure was never designed to reach them. Bluecore Energy HQ was built for them. Small modular reactors on barges, deployed directly where the demand is. One reactor, 15,000 homes of zero emission baseload power, delivered on demand. Silverton Partners is proud to be leading their oversubscribed seed round. We believe deployable clean baseload power is the defining energy infrastructure bet of this decade.

Three billion people live within an hour of water, and Bluecore Energy HQ is building the infrastructure to power them. We're proud to announce we're leading Bluecore Energy HQ's oversubscribed $50 million seed round. In nine months, Kofi Asante and his team secured a port terminal, delivered a barge, stood up a test reactor, and engaged the NRC, the US Coast Guard, MARAD, and the Port of Long Beach. That pace is exceptional. We are honored to back this team and this mission.
Today we announce an oversubscribed $50 million seed round. Less than 2 months ago, we came out of stealth. In the first 9 months from founding the company we now have a port terminal secured, barges delivered, test reactor, Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) engagement kicked off, US Coast Guard engaged, MOU between U.S. Department of Transportation's Maritime Administration (MARAD) and the Port of Long Beach signed, and a mission driven team of nuclear scientists, navy nuclear submarine and ship officers, rocket and automotive leaders. Excited to welcome Silverton Partners as the lead investor, with additional investments from my first investors Slauson & Co., Harlem Capital, Precursor Ventures, LMNT Ventures, Visible Hands, Capital Factory, Share Ventures, X&, Simu Liu's Markham Valley Ventures, Kevin Hart's HartBeat Ventures, and our full angel family. We're welcoming new partners MaC Venture Capital, Collab Capital, Act One Ventures, Animal Capital, BAG Collective, Rackhouse Venture Capital, Borusan Ventures, Symphony Ventures, Vanderbilt University, Scribble Ventures, Fortson VC and angels including Joel Embiid, Malik Monk, and Taijuan Walker. Our focus is simple. Create and deliver zero-emission energy as safely and quickly as possible. Over 3 billion people live within an hour of water. We want to power them all. Excited about our pace, but not satisfied until everyone has access to clean energy.

Great to see Kristen Dumbeck speak at the Fed Supernova conference yesterday as part of the VC Speaker Series! It was an insightful conversation on how VCs think about investment decisions; from the early signals that build conviction to what makes a strong relationship between founder and VC, and the lessons that continue to shape investing decisions today. It was thoughtful and engaging! #FedSupernova

Congratulations to CFO & Partner, Alyssa Dadoly who was featured on this month's Carta spotlight! 🎉 We are honored to work alongside Alyssa and lucky to have her helping shape the culture and future of Silverton. Check out the full article here! 👇 https://lnkd.in/gbSXw3FX
She's been at the same VC firm for 18 years. That's her competitive edge. Alyssa Dadoly, CFO and Partner at Silverton Partners, started there in college doing admin support. She built her entire career alongside the same managing partner. Alyssa’s background: Psychology → accounting → finance → CFO and Partner. The thread for her was curiosity about people. When you genuinely see people's strengths, you see potential in their ideas. Silverton's philosophy: believe in founders, provide mentorship, be people-forward. See good in people = see good in ideas. For a decade, she was the only woman in the room. Rather than fit the mold, she brought her own style. That gave others permission to do the same. When she got hiring power, she shifted the team forever. She and her managing partner lead differently: he's fast/decisive, she's thoughtful/consensus-building. After 18 years working together, that balance is their edge. Recent wins: mentoring early-career team, exploring AI for finance, and fundraising success in a tough market. But the real proof? LPs putting money back. Relationships matter. We sat down with Alyssa to talk about 18-year partnerships, why psychology shapes venture capital, and how people-first leadership drives growth. Full interview on the Carta blog. #VentureCapital #PeopleFirst #Leadership #LongTermThinking
