Shooting for the Stars: Exostellar Raises $15 Million Series A Round

Exostellar, a cloud resource optimization and management platform, is on the trajectory to be a star in the tech startup world. The Rev Alumni Stardom company, founded by Cornell University computer science professor Hakim Weatherspoon, recently announced a successful $15 million Series A round — bringing Exostellar’s valuation to $40 million. 

With the new funding, the company will continue working towards the development of AI-enabled cloud GPU resource optimization solutions. The oversubscribed round was led by Celesta and Cambium Capital, with participation from other venture capital firms across the country. 

This raise also marks a new chapter in Exostellar’s history, with Tony Shakib stepping into the role of President and CEO as Weatherspoon transitions to Chief Scientist.
