Um Chris Saka founded the fund.
They're really interested in adaptation tech now, right?
Like in the face of severe weather uh and change of climate, how do we build technologies that can um
Uh make us more resilient, right?
Um, so more resilient to drought, um, more resilient agriculture, more from cloud seeding is one way to facilitate that.
Um, and so they were stoked.
Uh Naval Ravikant, um, sage, philosopher, king of tech bros everywhere.
Uh, he was in, I think, just because we went for like a really long romantic walk in Manhattan Beach one time.
Um, and then uh Greg Bernstein from Ace Cap, Sovereigns Cap, some uh
uh really great uh Christian mentors and leaders for me.
And then um Drover Ventures as well.
Drover Ventures, William Clark, great dudes.
Um so that was the deal there.
Um yeah, I'll tell you that and then I'll show you all of the crazy shit that we've been working on with the money since we actually did raise it 'cause that's the more exciting part.
Um
What we were interested in then was uh technical sophistication.
Um cloud seeding, unlike even a lot of deep tech, is an inordinately complicated business.
You need to be really good at weather modeling, at air sole chemistry, at radar, um, at a bunch of other electronics, um meteorological radar is crazy unto itself, the avionics of the drone, boutique anti-ising systems, new chemistries, uh for new cloud seeding agents.
And so um
Here is some of the stuff that uh we had to diligence our investors on, whether they'd be able to understand what went into building novel meteorological radar.
