U.S. Aclima raises $24 million in Series A funding round

U.S. Aclima, a company that delivers environmental intelligence through sensor networks to improve human and planetary health, has announced $24 million in Series A funding round.

Aclima will use the funding to scale its stationary and fleet-based mapping of hyperlocal air pollution and emissions in cities.

Aclima said that this deal will accelerate its efforts to both fill a critical gap in air pollution emissions data, and transform this new class of information into environmental intelligence that drives better decision-making for communities, cities and the enterprise.

The round is led by U.S. private equity firm Social Capital, with participation from peers The Schmidt Family Foundation, Radicle Impact, Rethink Impact, Plum Alley, Kapor Capital, First Philippine Holdings and others.
