GreenGen Ventures, the corporate venture arm of Green Generation (GreenGen),
today announced it has structured and invested in a new round of
financing for Senseware, a full-stack IoT solution provider for smart
buildings. The investment was made by a fund under its management.
Founded in 2013 by Serene Almomen and Julien Stamatakis, Senseware
provides a cost-effective wireless solution that collects critical
mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and environmental data from users’
facilities to give actionable insights. Senseware optimizes facility
management with real-time, remote controls of critical systems,
increasing operational efficiency by addressing the inevitable
technological or functional obsolescence in users’ buildings.
“We have been working with Senseware since 2017 and could not be more
pleased to invest in the Senseware team,” said Brad Dockser, chief
executive officer of GreenGen. “We have seen firsthand how Senseware
significantly improves building operations costs and system processes,
and we look forward to helping them achieve their growth goals.”
Senseware maintains a robust portfolio of 26 IoT-related patents, and
its systems are currently deployed in over 750 buildings in the US, as
well as in three other countries. Senseware counts numerous real estate
giants as clients, including Cushman & Wakefield, EastBanc, Boston
Properties, and B.F. Saul Company.
“I am proud to partner with GreenGen to help take our company to the
next level,” said Serene Almomen, chief executive officer of Senseware.
“Our mission is to use technology to provide a fast path to real energy
savings. We will benefit greatly from GreenGen’s expertise and hands-on
approach and expertise.”
Having been a long-term strategic partner, GreenGen will continue to
support Senseware’s expansion of its business in the real estate
investment industry.
