Here’s to 2026 – One Drop at a Time 💧🚀 Kicking off 2026 with a purpose-driven investment in one of the most overlooked – yet crucial – pillars of climate adaptation: our water infrastructure. Together with kopa ventures and MBG Mittelständische Beteiligungsgesellschaft Baden-Wüttemberg, we’re thrilled to lead the seven-figure Seed round in Pluvion GmbH – a Water-Tech startup from Freiburg using AI and data to detect and localize foreign water entries in sewer networks. With their platform WATER+, Pluvion enables continuous, AI-powered monitoring, helping cities and utilities identify infrastructure issues early – saving water, CO₂, and money while preventing costly environmental impacts. At Enpulse, we’re committed to driving digital transformation in infrastructure – making systems more resilient, efficient and climate-ready. Pluvion’s approach is a perfect example of how data-driven innovation can protect one of our most critical resources. Excited to back Phillip Grimm, Stefan Grefen and the amazing team as they reimagine the future of digital water infrastructure! 🌍💧 Benjamin Wochner, Luis Sperr, Clara Wat, Cornelius Baral, Florian Vincent Forster, Martin Cremer, Michael Bez #watertech #AI #climateadaptation #smartcities #venturecapital #EnpulseVentures #impactinvesting
