📝 Toronto-based cleantech startup Xatoms has secured $3 million in pre-seed funding to advance its AI-powered, solar-activated water purification technology. The funding round, which includes $2 million in venture capital and $1 million in non-dilutive grants, was led by Canadian quantum-focused VC firm Quantacet, with participation from Genesis Ventures, BDC’s Thrive Lab, League of Innovators, Capital Angel Network, BoxOne Ventures, and several angel investors. Founded in 2024 by Diana Virgovicova, Kerem Topal Ismail Oglou, and Shirley Zhong, Xatoms aims to provide infrastructure-free water treatment solutions for remote and underserved communities. The company’s technology purifies water in 30 minutes, targeting biological pathogens, heavy metals, and chemical pollutants. The new capital will be used to scale pilot programs, expand technical and manufacturing teams, and form partnerships with communities and industrial stakeholders. Xatoms is also exploring applications beyond water purification, leveraging its platform for broader material discovery.
