During my two decades as an IT and Security leader, I watched data explode across clouds, SaaS apps and now Gen AI pipelines, yet the tools meant to protect it stayed locked in an infrastructure‑centric world. Theom flips that paradigm by making data—not the perimeter—the control point and giving security and data teams one AI‑powered console to see who touched what data, why, and what happens next. That is the platform I looked for as an operator and the reason Ridge Ventures is thrilled to back Theom’s mission to keep enterprises compliant and fearless in the AI era.

Theom is solving one of the most urgent challenges in enterprise IT today of data authorization for AI & data governance and security. Their platform combines deep technical innovation with real-world usability, delivering powerful results without disrupting how modern businesses operate or data leaving the customer's jurisdiction.

At SentinelOne’s S Ventures, we invest in bold ideas that redefine what’s possible in cybersecurity, data and AI – startups that will create fundamentally new categories or upend entire market segments. We believe Theom is poised to create a fundamentally new category in data - Theom isn’t just improving data security—it’s reimagining it. With a fundamentally new approach to governance, control, and intelligence, Theom is building the foundation for how enterprises will secure data in the age of AI.

Snowflake Ventures’ investment in Theom reflects our strong belief in the critical need for intelligent, automated data security governance. Theom’s impressive traction in the financial sector – an industry with some of the most stringent security requirements – validates its technology and approach. We see Theom as a key Snowflake partner transforming how organizations protect and govern their data assets, particularly as data environments become increasingly complex.

At Databricks, we are committed to making it easier for our customers to put trustworthy data and AI into production. Theom helps enterprises do just that. Its AI-native Data Operations Center extends the governance foundation of Unity Catalog across multicloud, SaaS, and generative-AI workloads, giving our joint customers end-to-end visibility and control. Their success in demanding, regulated enterprises proves the platform can scale today, and we’re excited to deepen our partnership as more organizations build on the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform.
