Spotted: a fish out of water 🐟
Our sensors don’t usually enjoy rooftop sunsets, but yesterday they were briefly evicted from their natural habitat while we tested different satellite module settings.

Our CEO @rivertechjess spoke at #ClimaNowSpotlight Pitch Night in Zürich about turning an idea into impact: building affordable river sensors, learning electronics from scratch, and staying persistent.
Grateful to @ClimaNow_ for supporting new ideas in water and climate.

Last spring at Riverkin we hand-built ~100 water sensors and shipped them worldwide. We gave 5% to Students for Rivers Camp on the Marañón, the hydrological source of the Amazon. Quietly proud and grateful to @CollectiveRiver.

Got hit by a car and in the same week, won 500'000 € in (non-dilutive) funding for my startup RiverLabs (not related to the car accident)! Thank you to everyone supporting me and I am so excited to make freshwater data more accessible! 🌊🐟🐡🐸

Thank you @BRIDGE_funding for selecting @RiverLabsCH for this prestigious program! We are one step closer to making water data more accessible and we cannot wait to make this happen. Thank you🌊🙏
🏆We are excited to introduce the new POC fellows! 11 who responded to the special call for Bachelor's or Master's graduates and 14 who responded to the regular call convinced the panel! They will receive up to 130,000 Swiss francs to implement their project. 🚀

The AGU 2023 conference program is overwhelming! New strategy: are you presenting? Tell me your session and I'll add it to my schedule. I'll be presenting at the H41S MacGyver session presenting my entire PhD about low-cost sensors. Come say hi!
