Last update: 11 hours ago

AI Policy: Rhode Island Rep. Gabe Amo joined House Democrats demanding answers about U.S. exports of advanced AI chips, warning that sales to strategic competitors could threaten national security.

Sheldon Whitehouse, a co-author, says it could help address energy costs. Research and Startups: URI’s Tech Showcase put 10 university ventures before investors and industry partners, while state climate funding awarded $476,312 to three URI programs. Life Sciences: Swiss eye-care company Alcon bought Rhode Island biotech Neurotech Pharmaceuticals for $550 million, with potential additional payments tied to commercial milestones. Clean Energy: Revolution Wind and Vineyard Wind are now fully operational, bringing new power to the region’s grid.
