Join the Materials Revolution
Weiss Investment Summit 2026
Exclusive Investor Briefing
The Material That Will Replace Silicon Already Exists.
It’s called gallium nitride (GaN). The world has known about it for 30 years. The only problem? No one could manufacture it cleanly, cheaply, or at scale. Until now — and that changes everything.
"Every data center of the future will be power-limited."
Jensen Huang
CEO, NVIDIA
"The biggest issue we are now having is not a compute glut — it’s power."
Satya Nadella
CEO, Microsoft
"GaN is likely to be the preferred technology for reducing the carbon footprint of several core applications by the end of the decade."
Jochen Hanebeck
CEO, Infineon Technologies — World’s 3rd Largest Semiconductor Company
Power conversion is the bottleneck
AI Is Breaking The Grid.
U.S. data centers will nearly triple their energy consumption by 2030 — soaring from 224 terawatt-hours to over 600 TWh. That's 12% of America's entire electrical grid in just five years.
The math is staggering: this growth demands an estimated $500 billion in new power infrastructure — not to grow AI, just to keep pace with what's already been built. And we're still wasting 6% of every watt as heat because silicon-based power systems can't convert electricity efficiently enough.
This is what Jensen Huang means by "power-limited." It isn't a warning about the future. It's a description of right now.
The Numbers Alone Don't Fully Capture It. Here's What Does.
PUT IT IN PERSPECTIVE
The Scale Of The Problem.
Not more than a city. More than the entire 7th-largest economy on Earth.
Silicon systems lose 6% of every watt as waste heat — across millions of servers, that's entire power plants worth of electricity thrown away every hour. GaN changes that equation: 94% silicon efficiency becomes 96-99% with GaN. At the scale of global AI infrastructure, those percentage points represent the energy output of entire nations. That's the difference between an AI future that scales and one that stalls.
Why Every Major Chip Company Is Racing to Adopt GaN — And Why No One Has Cracked It Yet
The efficiency advantage isn't just clever engineering — it's physics. Gallium nitride has a wider bandgap, faster electron mobility, and higher thermal tolerance than silicon. That translates to five critical breakthroughs chip manufacturers have been chasing for decades.
At >100 kHz switching, GaN enables motor drives and power supplies that silicon cannot match in robotics and data centers.
The Problem No One Could Solve
The $51 Billion Bottleneck Nobody Solved — Until Now
The industry has known about GaN since the 1990s. The performance gap is staggering — GaN switches 100× faster, handles extreme temperatures, and wastes dramatically less energy as heat. Every major chip company wants it. The problem was never the science.
Producing high-quality GaN the traditional way requires toxic solvents, hazardous byproducts, and per-unit costs so high that only defense budgets could absorb them. That’s the only reason we’re still in the Silicon Age.

A Proprietary Process That Makes GaN Production Clean, Scalable, and Finally Affordable.
Mivium's process uses mechanochemistry — triggering chemical reactions through mechanical force instead of toxic reagents. Behind this patent is a team that helped build the semiconductor industry — veterans of Intel, Applied Materials, Lam Research, and KLA Tencor, with 100+ years of combined expertise across GaN materials, deposition systems, and semiconductor manufacturing. They didn't just study this problem. They spent their careers inside it.
The difference is easier to see than to explain.
Patented. Proven.
And The Only Process of Its Kind In The World.
Hear It Directly from the People Watching Mivium
James Altucher — hedge fund manager, 20x author, and host of The James Altucher Show with 20 million downloads — sat down to explain why Mivium represents a once-in-a-generation materials play.
Three Independent Groups. Same Conclusion.
*These are not paid endorsements. These are investors and analysts who recommended Mivium to their own paid subscribers — at their own reputational risk.
Chris Graebe's Deal Hunters Alliance recommended it to thousands of subscribers. Asymmetric Ventures spent two years covering it independently. When Asymmetric merged with Robert Kiyosaki to form The Venture Network, Mivium stayed in the portfolio. Three groups. Three independent diligence processes. One company they all agreed on.
"For years, I've taught that the path to true wealth is through private enterprise — not the public stock market. It's a world where the right network and the right analysis can lead to life-changing returns."
Robert Kiyosaki
Co-Founder, The Venture Network
Author, Rich Dad Poor Dad
"We've fought to get this opportunity, we've fought to understand it... This is the type of company I'm excited to invest in, and this is how I make wealth for myself, my family, my children, their children, and so on."
James Altucher
Co-Founder, Asymmetric Ventures
Hedge Fund Manager , WSJ #1 Bestseller
“We recommended Mivium in 2024 because they are building the bridge from the Silicon Age to the Gallium Nitride Era. Management continues hitting its developmental benchmarks. We remain confident in the trajectory.”
Tim Collins
Co-Founder, The Venture Network
Managing Partner
"A deal more than two years in the making... Hundreds of hours of research, calls, and face-to-face meetings have led to this opportunity... this opportunity is potentially the most disruptive opportunity we have ever brought to the table."
Bob Byrne
Co-Founder, The Venture Network
Asymmetric Ventures
THE RESEARCH THAT STARTED IT ALL
The Analyst Who Covered Mivium Before the World Knew It Existed
Led by James Altucher and Bob Byrne, Asymmetric Ventures spent over two years covering Mivium — publishing independent research to thousands of paying subscribers. They were the first major analyst group to call it. They're now part of The Venture Network alongside Robert Kiyosaki. The conviction hasn't changed.
