Last week, we pitched at Kingscrowd’s Q3 Demo Day and the audience voted Airthium as the fan-favorite! When announcing us as the winners, Chris Lustrino, Kingscrowd CEO, said “I think what they’re doing is amazing and very much a revolutionary technology.” Thank you to everyone who turned up live and voted for us. 🏆If you missed it, you can replay our demo day pitch here → Demo day replayAs we announced last week, Kingscrowd Capital also invested in our round and named us a Top Deal with a 4.9/5.0 rating. The ongoing recognition from Kingscrowd and the Kingscrowd community is strong validation of what we’re building: high-temperature heat pumps to make industrial heat cheaper and cleaner.We’re solving industrial reliance on gas for heat by giving factories the flexibility to switch between gas and electricity, in real time. Our Heat-as-a-Service model also takes out the biggest capital barrier to industrial heat electrification.Early bird terms are now sold out but you can still invest or increase your investment here → wefunder.com/airthium/invest
