Lumana
Lumana is an enterprise AI video security company that turns ordinary IP cameras into real-time monitoring, detection and response systems. Founded in 2021 by former Intel computer-vision leaders and based in Los Gatos, California, Lumana pairs its proprietary VIA-1 vision model with vision language models and agentic AI to run analytics on more than a billion images a day - flagging weapons, fires, falls and unauthorized access, cutting false alerts, and letting security teams search footage across 100+ attributes. The company raised a $40M Series A in 2025, bringing total funding to $64M, and counts McDonald's, Meta, the Minnesota Twins and NYU among its customers.
Minerva Networks
Minerva Networks is a San Jose-based software company that builds carrier-grade service management and video delivery platforms for pay-TV and broadband operators. Founded in 1992, its platform lets telcos, cable and satellite providers offer IPTV, OTT and hybrid television - with live TV, VOD, network DVR, catch-up and FAST channels - across set-top boxes, smart TVs, mobile and web. More than 300 operators worldwide run Minerva, and the company now layers AI-driven content discovery through its Minnie AI Companion and its FAST+ streaming service.
Umbo Computer Vision
Umbo Computer Vision is a San Francisco and Taipei based startup building autonomous video security systems that use deep learning to watch camera feeds the way a human guard would - flagging intrusions, tailgating and wall-scaling in real time while ignoring birds, cats and weather. Founded in 2014 by Shawn Guan, Ping-Lin Chang and Tingfan Wu, the company pairs its SmartDome camera hardware with a neural-net engine called Light and a cloud platform, and has raised roughly $17.6M to sell mostly through security integrators to businesses, schools and public-safety customers.
Mux
Mux is the video API for developers. The San Francisco company gives engineers a simple set of endpoints for live streaming, on-demand video, encoding, playback, and quality-of-experience analytics, so they can ship video features without rebuilding the streaming stack from scratch.
Jon Dahl
Jon Dahl is the co-founder and CEO of Mux, a developer-first video infrastructure platform that powers video at scale for companies like Robinhood, PBS, and ViacomCBS. A serial founder who sold Zencoder to Brightcove for $30M in 2012 and co-created Video.js — the most widely deployed open-source video player on the web — Dahl has spent two decades turning the complexity of online video into simple, powerful APIs for developers. Mux has raised $173.9M in total funding, achieved unicorn status in 2021, and processes several billion monthly video streams.
Mauro Bonomi
Mauro Bonomi is the Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Minerva Networks, a San Jose-based company he built from the ground up into a global IPTV and OTT software platform serving over 300 operators across 6 continents. A Stanford-trained electrical engineer with deep roots in digital video compression, Bonomi spent decades at the intersection of television and the internet before that intersection became a cliche. His platform powers pay-TV services from linear broadcast to AI-driven content discovery, helping carriers modernize without tearing everything down.
