Water is the enemy of roads.
This tech helps manage that risk
Owners and operators of roads—as well as builders, consultants, and other stakeholders—recognize that measuring moisture in roads is essential for adapting to climate-driven water risks, preventing costly maintenance problems, and ensuring construction quality that delivers long-term durability. Addressing this risk used to be expensive and complex...not anymore.
Climate change is accelerating aquatic ecosystem impairment. This tech helps manage that risk
Algal blooms have always occurred, but they are getting more widespread and much more dangerous due to warming waters and the growing intensity of extreme rainfall, which accelerates nutrient, industrial, and municipal runoff into coastal and fresh ecosystems. Addressing this risk used to be expensive and complex...not anymore.

Climate-driven shifts are making water levels more unpredictable. This tech helps manage that risk
Water level fluctuations have always occurred, but they are becoming more frequent and more extreme due to climate change, driven by intensified rainfall, flooding, drought, and sea-level rise across marine and freshwater systems. These swings increase flood risk, accelerate erosion, and strain infrastructure and ecosystems alike. Addressing this risk used to require costly, manual monitoring and sparse data… not anymore.
About
What earns our attention
"Founders who: 1) have Industry 4.0 solutions for customers in our 4 targeted sectors, 2) seek to displace the 'dinosaur' solutions still being sold by incumbents , and 3) see a future where technology innovation, not consulting studies, helps more of industry and society deal with water risk in our new climate reality."
