Investment accelerates commercialization of micro-LED platform, delivering step-function gains in bandwidth density and energy efficiency

CUPERTINO, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Mojo Vision, the high-performance micro-LED platform company, today announced a $17.5 million strategic investment from Future Ventures, the venture capital firm co-founded and led by Steve Jurvetson. The investment follows Mojo Vision’s $75 million financing last August and will help accelerate the development and commercialization of its micro-LED platform for next-generation AI infrastructure.

As AI workloads continue to scale, data center interconnects are emerging as a critical bottleneck, with bandwidth density and power efficiency becoming increasingly limiting factors. Mojo Vision’s micro-LED technology is designed to enable a new class of optical I/O, delivering massively parallel connectivity with higher bandwidth density and lower energy per bit.

The investment also builds on Mojo Vision’s recently announced strategic collaboration with Marvell to develop next-generation, high-density micro-LED connectivity solutions for AI data center infrastructure, underscoring growing industry momentum behind massively parallel optical I/O architectures.

“AI infrastructure is reaching fundamental limits in bandwidth density and power efficiency, and incremental improvements are no longer enough,” said Nikhil Balram, CEO of Mojo Vision. “Our micro-LED platform was purpose-built to overcome this tradeoff, enabling thousands of optical lanes in a compact footprint and unlocking major gains in bandwidth while lowering energy per bit. This investment accelerates our path to bringing a new class of optical interconnect solutions to market.”

Steve Jurvetson, Founder and Managing Director of Future Ventures, said: “Mojo Vision is rethinking optical interconnects from first principles. By replacing lasers with dense arrays of micro-LEDs, the company’s approach has the potential to deliver dramatic gains in bandwidth density while reducing energy per bit. With thousands of optical channels operating in parallel, this architecture offers a fundamentally more scalable path than traditional approaches. This is the kind of step-change AI infrastructure needs.”

As AI infrastructure expands globally, demand for higher-performance, lower-power connectivity is driving a shift toward new system architectures. Mojo Vision’s micro-LED platform is built to meet that need through massively parallel optical I/O that increases bandwidth density while lowering energy consumption. These capabilities are relevant not only for next-generation terrestrial data centers, but also for emerging architectures, including distributed and orbital computing infrastructure, where power efficiency, weight, and scalability are especially important.
