Dr. Thomas Fudge and Llŷr Anwyl were the first entrepreneurs we backed at Science Angel Syndicate in 2021 when we made an investment into WASE LIMITED who had a vision for the valorisation of wastewater in SME industries. Excited is an understatement! To see this company announce its latest £8.5m round with coverage in TechCrunch is great validation of the early bet we placed. Thomas and Llyr have brought on some exceptional investors on board as part of this round Extantia, ENGIE New Ventures, Hitachi Ventures and WEPA Ventures. Our new rebranded Syndicate Empirical Ventures also participated in this round alongside follow-on from Elbow Beach Capital. Of course this is still just the beginning of the development of this technology and we stand by ready to continue supporting WASE. It also marked the start of an important relationship with Elbow Beach Capital who made their first fund investment into WASE LIMITED. Working alongside Jonathan Pollock at the board level to support the development of WASE further highlighted the importance of having the right investors on your captable.
