The useful read region vs region

┌─ generated from funding, org, model, compute, and overlap signals ─────────────────────────────── ┐

Africa leads on AI funding; Oceania leads on operational compute.

Africa's biggest carrier is Cassava Technologies: $720M (99.7% of tracked side funding). Oceania's biggest carrier is Leonardo.Ai: $300M (54.5% of tracked side funding).

The org chart switches to a carrier board because a treemap would exaggerate sparse or heavily skewed data.

Funding is HQ-based and limited to AI-native orgs. Compute is counted by datacenter location, so it can disagree with headquarters funding.
