I-Hardware inokuba nzima ngokwenene, kodwa isiqalo esakha iqonga sinokunceda ukwaphula le ngcamango ngokwenza i-hardware ibe lula ukuyivelisa, ibhengeze inkxaso-mali eyongezelelweyo ukuqhubeka nokwakha iqonga layo.
I-Fictiv ibeka ngokwayo njenge "AWS ye-hardware" - iqonga labo bafuna ukuvelisa i-hardware ethile, indawo yokuyila, ixabiso kunye nokuyalela ezo nxalenye kwaye ekugqibeleni bazithumele ukusuka kwenye indawo ukuya kwenye - i-35 yezigidi zeerandi iphakanyisiwe.
UFictiv uza kusebenzisa inkxaso-mali ukuqhubeka nokwakha iqonga lakhe kunye nekhonkco lokubonelela elixhasa ishishini lakhe, elichazwa sisiqalo njenge "inkqubo yokwenziwa kwedijithali."
I-CEO kunye nomseki uDave Evans uthe ugxininiso lwenkampani luye kwaye luya kuqhubeka lungabizimveliso eziveliswa ngobuninzi, kodwa iiprototypes kunye nezinye iimveliso zentengiso enkulu, ezifana nezixhobo zonyango ezithile.
“Sigxile kwi-1,000 ukuya kwi-10,000,” utshilo kudliwanondlebe, esithi ngumngeni wezolimo kuba olu hlobo lomsebenzi aluboni uqoqosho olukhulu, kodwa lusenkulu kakhulu ukuba lungaqwalaselwa luncinci kwaye lunexabiso eliphantsi."Olu luluhlu apho uninzi lweemveliso zisafile."
Lo mjikelo wenkxaso-mali - Uchungechunge D - luvela kubatyali-mali beqhinga kunye nezezimali.Ikhokelwa yi-40 North Ventures kwaye iquka i-Honeywell, i-Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, i-Adit Ventures, i-M2O, kunye nabaxhasi bangaphambili i-Accel, i-G2VP kunye ne-Bill Gates.
UFictiv ugqibele ukukhulisa inkxaso-mali phantse kwiminyaka emibini eyadlulayo - umjikelo wezigidi ezingama-33 zeedola ekuqaleni kuka-2019 - kwaye ixesha lotshintsho ibe luvavanyo oluhle, lokwenyani lwembono yeshishini awayenombono wakhe xa wayeqala ukwakha.
Kwanangaphambi kobhubhane, "sasingazi ukuba kuza kwenzeka ntoni kwimfazwe yorhwebo phakathi kwe-US ne-China," utshilo. Ngequbuliso, ikhonkco lokubonelela nge-China "ladilika kwaye yonke into yavalwa" ngenxa yezi ngxabano zerhafu.
Isisombululo sikaFictiv yayikukuhambisa imveliso kwezinye iindawo zaseAsia, ezinje ngeIndiya kunye ne-US, eyathi yanceda inkampani xa iliza lokuqala le-COVID-19 labetha eTshayina.
Emva koko kwabakho ukuqhambuka kwehlabathi, kwaye uFictiv wazifumana etshintsha kwakhona njengoko iifektri zamazwe asanda kuvulwa zivaliwe.
Ke, njengoko iinkxalabo zorhwebo zipholile, uFictiv waphinda wavuselela ubudlelwane kunye nokusebenza e-China, eyayiqulathe i-COVID kwiintsuku zokuqala, ukuqhubeka nokusebenza apho.
Eyaziwa kwangethuba ngokwakha iiprototypes zeenkampani zetekhnoloji ezijikeleze iBay Area, isiqalo senza i-VR kunye nezinye izixhobo, ezinikezela ngeenkonzo ezibandakanya ukubumba inaliti, umatshini weCNC, ushicilelo lwe-3D, kunye ne-urethane cast, uyilo lwesoftware esekwe ngamafu kunye nee-odolo zamacandelo, ezithi ke zithunyelwe nguFictiv kumzi-mveliso ofanele ukuwenza.
Namhlanje, ngelixa ishishini liqhubeka nokukhula, i-Fictiv ikwasebenza kunye neenkampani ezinkulu zamazwe ngamazwe ukuphuhlisa iimveliso ezincinci zokuvelisa ezitsha okanye ezingenako ukusetyenzwa ngokufanelekileyo kwizityalo ezikhoyo.
Umsebenzi owenzela u-Honeywell, umzekelo, uquka i-hardware ye-aerospace division.
IFictiv ayiyokuphela kwenkampani ejonge eli thuba.Ezinye iindawo zentengiso ezisekiweyo zinokukhuphisana ngokuthe ngqo nezo zisekwe yiFictiv, okanye zijolise eminye imiba yekhonkco, efana noyilo lwemarike, okanye indawo yentengiso apho iifektri zinxibelelana nabayili, okanye abayili bezinto eziphathekayo, kuquka iGeomiq eNgilani, iCarbon (ekwafumana i-40 North), i-Auckland's Fathom, i-Kreatize yaseJamani, i-Plethora (exhaswa yi-GV kunye ne-Founders Fund), kunye ne-Xometry (eye yaphakamisa umjikelo omkhulu kutshanje).
U-Evans kunye nabatyali-mali bakhe balumkile ukuba bangayichazi into abayenzayo njengetekhnoloji yezemveliso ekhethekileyo ukugxila kumathuba amakhulu aziswa yinguqu yedijithali, kwaye ke, amandla eqonga elenziwa nguFictiv.yezicelo ezahlukeneyo.
“Itekhnoloji yoshishino iligama elingafanelekanga.Ndicinga ukuba lutshintsho lwedijithali, i-SaaS esekwe emafini kunye nobukrelekrele bokwenziwa,” utshilo uMarianne Wu, umlawuli olawulayo kwi-40 North Ventures.
Isindululo sikaFictiv kukuba ngokuthatha ulawulo lonikezelo lokuvelisa i-hardware kumashishini, inokusebenzisa iqonga layo ukuvelisa i-hardware ngeveki, inkqubo eyayinokuthi ithathe iinyanga ezintathu ngaphambili, enokuthi iindleko eziphantsi kunye nokusebenza okuphezulu s.
Nangona kunjalo, umsebenzi omninzi kusafuneka wenziwe.Inqaku elikhulu lokuncamathela kwimveliso yikhabhoni ekhoyo kwimveliso, kunye neemveliso ezizivelisayo.
Inokuba yingxaki enkulu ukuba abalawuli beBiden baphila ngokwezithembiso zabo zokunciphisa ukukhutshwa kwemveliso kwaye baxhomekeke ngakumbi kwiinkampani ukuba zifezekise ezo njongo.
U-Evans uyazi kakuhle le ngxaki kwaye uyavuma ukuba imveliso inokuba lelona shishini linzima ukuguqula.
"Uzinzo kunye nokuveliswa kwezinto azifani," uyavuma.Nangona uphuhliso lwezixhobo kunye nokuveliswa kuya kuthatha ixesha elide, uthe ugxininiso ngoku ukuphunyezwa kweenkqubo ezingcono zabucala kunye noluntu kunye nekhabhoni yekhredithi.Wathi wayenombono wemarike engcono. iikhredithi zekhabhoni, kwaye iFictiv yasungula isixhobo sayo sokulinganisa oku.
"Ixesha livuthiwe ukuba uzinzo luphazamiseke kwaye sifuna ukuba nesicwangciso sokuqala sokuhambisa i-carbon neutral ukubonelela abathengi ngeendlela ezingcono zokuzinza okukhulu.Iinkampani ezifana nezethu zisemagxeni okuqhuba olu xanduva lwalo msebenzi.”
