Seed Stories are 15-20 minute conversations with founders on the heels of a raising a recent Seed round. We'll learn about their company, their fundraising process, what worked, what didn't and what their plan is going forward. Today on Seed Stories we're going to hear from Jose, CEO & Co-Founder of Waterplan https://www.waterplan.com/. They recently announce a Seed round of $2.6M led by Giant Ventures. https://techcrunch.com/2021/11/03/waterplan-tracks-water-risks-and-sustainable-solutions-for-climate-conscious-companies/ #startups #founders #sustainability Jose Galindo, Nicolas Wertheimer and their colleagues Matias Comercio and Olivia Cesio founded Waterplan after both working in and around the environmental sector for years. They realized that although there was a lot of action, data and planning around carbon emissions, comparatively little was being done around water risk, since it has yet to become as visible of a threat. They started the company and took it through Y Combinator’s Summer 2021 cohort.
