EnergyX Solutions Inc., a Toronto, Canada-based marketing automation company that uses AI and machine learning to increase customer participation in utility-run energy efficiency programs, raised an additional CAD$500k.
The MaRS Investment Accelerator Fund provided the capital.

The additional money raised will bring their seed round total to $1.8 million.
The company will use the resources to continue its strategic expansion into the United States.
