VENTURE INVESTING

Investing in young companies addressing water-related risks

Mazarine funds have the mandate to invest in early-stage technology companies with a combination of hardware, software, and/or business model innovation that help manage water/wastewater-related risks.  

INCUBATOR

We are skunkworking the next generation of solutions 

We are hypothesis-oriented investors, which called for the building of our own in-house incubator to 're-set' under-performing companies and/or launch new companies from scratch.  

INSIGHTS

We see the 'water-tech' investment opportunity differently

Inefficiencies in the management and use of water lead to risks, spanning: public health & safety, environmental protection, cost of water, and business disruption.

WHO IS MAZARINE? 

It sounds cliché, but it takes more than just a good product. The founders we back have the beginnings of a solid offering, but more importantly they can articulate a compelling vision of the future. 

We believe in founders before the world knows about them

We invest in founders who are:

  • Impatient, and fearlessly advancing a creative hardware, software, or business model solution to help their customer manage water/wastewater-related risks;

  • Knowledgeable of customer needs and the competitive landscape of solutions;

  • Aware that their company's offerings ultimately support their customers' efforts to manage: Public Health & Safety risks, Environmental Protection risks, Cost of Water risks,  and/or Business Disruption risks.
