The San Francisco-based firm, steered by water industry expert Tom Ferguson, looks to invest in seed-stage water companies and raise the profile of the huge but fragmented water market.
Burnt Island Ventures.
“With the explosion of money going into climate tech, $40 billion [in 2021 alone], only $400 million is going into water, or 1%,” Ferguson says. Ferguson has worn many hats in the water sector, from researcher to consultant and vice president of programming at an industry-specific accelerator, Imagine H20. In 2020, he launched Burnt Island Ventures to focus on seed-stage water startups. He’d noticed a number of exits in the ecosystem, including water-powered energy company Anaergia — and also noted what he describes as growing sophistication and quality among entrepreneurs in the space.
