Slava Solonitsyn

CEO & Co-Founder at Steel Robotics

Speaker

Slava Solonitsyn is CEO and co-founder of Steel Robotics, an AI-powered design-to-manufacturing platform that helps bring AI data centers online faster. AI hardware now changes faster than its infrastructure can be delivered. Steel Robotics connects design iteration with fabrication simulation, supplier capacity and lead times, so developers and contractors can lock in designs closer to buildout, with less risk that the next chip generation makes them obsolete. The company starts with hot aisle containment, the structural core of every AI data hall, and is co-developing a 50 MW data center in the UAE built on NVIDIA's DSX approach.

A two-time Y Combinator founder, Slava previously co-founded Mighty Buildings and took it from design into automated production: two automated prefab factories and over $150M raised.
