Harmonic, a math-oriented AI startup co-founded by Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev, announced that it is providing "research sponsorship" to Neel Somani, founder and CEO of the former Eclipse. Somani stepped down in 2024 under pressure from investors like Hack VC after being accused of sexual misconduct, which he denies. Last year, Harmonic completed a $120 million funding round, with a valuation of approximately $1.45 billion, and plans to offer a total of $1 million in sponsorships to students and researchers.
