Etched’s backers are celebrating a new Sequoia partnership around the company’s inference-chip bet.
- The quoted post says Sequoia partner Sonya did more than 50 calls with customers, suppliers, and other chip companies before reaching out.
- It describes visits to Etched’s lab, discussions about the future of inference clusters, and investors seeing the models run themselves.
- No funding amount is mentioned, so this reads more like a company/strategic update than a financing announcement.
