AtmoCooling, a Seattle, WA-based climate technology company providing large-scale seawater evaporative cooling to create sustainable agricultural and climate resilience hubs, raised $2.6M in Pre-Seed funding.
The round was led by Nucleus Capital and Revent Ventures, with participation from Marble, Unruly, Founders Factory Blue Action, Patrick Tilley, SwiftScale, Bronco Ventures, Hub71, and others.
The company intends to use the funds to expand operations and its business reach.
Led by CEO Paul Mahacek, AtmoCooling provides a proprietary system that leverages seawater evaporative cooling to lower ambient temperatures and create optimized microclimates, making desert regions viable for food production and sustainable development. By utilizing brine and seawater instead of freshwater, it offers a scalable, sustainable alternative to traditional cooling methods while reducing heat stress on crops, infrastructure, and communities.
The company is advancing pilot deployments in key arid regions and expanding partnerships with researchers, agricultural producers, and sustainability innovators.
