COMMUNITY.
Intelligence.
Capital.
Tech entrepreneurship requires more than funding. It demands the right people, the right insights, and the right support.
Our model
Two Communities,
One Mission.
Galion.exe: a fund and network of 400 founders and operators designed for AI-native founders.
Reg.exe: a technical powerhouse, where 150+ AI builders, researchers, and engineers exchange ideas and solve real problems.
(stay) SOTA
The home for technical founders & researchers.
Connecting top technical talents and leading AI experts to push the boundaries of cutting-edge research, models, and applications.
Imagine a top university joining forces with a network of startups to launch a world-class AI lab. Your new R&D playground.

Frontier talks
A 40-minute teardown of AI’s most challenging frontiers, followed by 20 minutes of unfiltered Q&A. Led by world-class experts, each session dissects the bleeding edge, from fundamental breakthroughs to the trickiest failure modes.
Spice level: 🌶️🌶️ to 🌶️🌶️🌶️ (not for the faint of heart)
intimate gatherings
From casual Friday lunches to multi-day retreats across Europe, these events bring AI researchers, technical founders, engineers, and operators together to showcase live demos, exchange sharp critiques, and iterate in real-time, because breakthroughs happen when you're surrounded by the right people
Spice level: 🌶️ to 🌶️🌶️ (builders’ empowerment, zero fluff)
HACKATONS
No slides. No spectators. Just teams, tools, and the ticking clock. HARD RESET is SOTA’s applied R&D playground—an experimental zone where theory crashes into practice. Bring your custom rigs, off-policy tricks, or unfinished thoughts. We build under pressure and iterate in public. For builders who like to break and reboot.
Spice level: 🌶️🌶️ to 🌶️🌶️🌶️ (and slightly muddy shoes)

OUR VALUES
Writing history together.
We support ambitious, daring, and collaborative entrepreneurs who are building moonshot companies that will have a significant impact on societies and people’s lives. They can make a difference and we are here to help them achieve their dreams.
Learn. Grow. Share.
Entrepreneurship is about learning as fast as possible and making it a reality. These actions will result in growth, therefore in value creation. Both learning and value should be shared.
Trust yourself. Trust others.
We believe in following one’s convictions as a guide for actions. This is key in our environment of uncertainty. We also believe in listening to others and being open to cooperation as a default state.
Make it beautiful. Make it right.
Value creation is not the end in itself. Action is nothing without virtues, and we believe beauty and justice should guide action for their sake.
Bringing you the best resources from day 1
