CO2 Brew offers an engineered CO₂ recovery system, specially designed for small-to-medium sized craft breweries. Our unit allows craft brewers to capture and recover high purity liquid CO₂ produced from the fermentation process, for reuse within the brewery.
-
As electricity grids are failing, CONNECT X is transforming the old grids with tech, avoiding hundreds of billions of dollars investments in grids and old power plants, increasing savings of energy usage and managed demands, and therefore decreasing energy costs with reliable electricity 24/7/365.
-
The “smart” thermostats on the market were designed for residences; think fragile casing, limited lock-out abilities and home-centric app controls. So that left business owners and operators with two choices in commercial climate control: technology that would feel at home in the 1980’s, or a multimillion dollar Building Management System. Enter ENASTAT, the world’s most durable, easy-to-use thermostat designed specifically for businesses.

Startup TNT Cleantech Summit 2024
Investment Summit Finale: March 14, 2024
Startup TNT is dedicated to improving access to capital for early-stage tech companies. We do this by increasing the pool of professional early-stage investors, educating entrepreneurs on fundraising best practices, and facilitating lasting relationships between both parties.
Startup TNT Investment Summits help raise capital for startups and make it easier for local investors, both seasoned and new, to angel investing.
Eligibility: Companies must be headquartered or have a management presence in Alberta, Saskatchewan or Manitoba.
How it Works: $150K+ invested into each Winner ($100k+ from the individual angels and $50k from the VC fund, syndicated as one cheque) + $25K-$150K+ side deals into additional companies.
Many angels decide to invest more than their original $5k cheque; therefore, the Winner will likely raise $200k - $500k+ in total. In 2022, our 9 Summit Winners received an average of $230K.
Additional side deals negotiated at the Summit Finale with non-winners range from $25k to $350k.
All deals are syndicated by Startup TNT (through an LP), resulting in a single line on your cap table and easy investor relations (we herd your cats).
