Tech Scene: San Francisco is becoming a place of longing for young Germans in the AI boom
Never has more capital flowed into Silicon Valley. In the midst of it all: young Germans who give up their doctoral titles or corporate careers to get rich in the AI boom. However, they would wish it were different.
Marvin Gabler, a young German entrepreneur, has moved to San Francisco to start a new company focused on simulating the physical world using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to develop new materials. He previously founded his first start-up, Jua, in Europe in 2022 but sees more opportunities in the US, where AI labs are willing to pay top dollar for top talent.
Gabler and other German entrepreneurs are flocking to California, drawn by the prospect of funding and talent, with some venture capitalists from Berlin, Munich, and Stuttgart now regularly visiting the West Coast to invest in teams from back home. The trend is driven by the growing demand for AI experts, with some young Germans being offered millions of dollars by US AI labs.
