The investment reinforces SecondMuse Capital’s mission to finance economies of the future that incentivize innovations contributing to economic resilience and sustainability.



SecondMuse Capital is pleased to announce its investment in Pulse Industrial, an Ontario-based Industrial IoT company, joining a seed round of investment alongside Momenta, Convergent Seed Fund (formerly PVP), SOSV and Celtic House Asia Partners. The investment will be used by Pulse for general working capital as well as development and production of their industry leading sensors, sales and marketing efforts to continue to improve the AI failure detection engine. An AI industrial tech company, Pulse Industrial has developed an industrial equipment monitoring solution that provides advanced accuracy readings for the monitoring of industrial equipment failures. Pulse’s steam trap failure detection solution has been installed in some of North America’s leading universities, manufacturing facilities, pharmaceutical companies, food and beverage processing plants and more. The return on investment and emission reductions experienced by these energy-intensive industries after installing the Pulse solution is a strong indicator of the opportunity that is ahead for further expansion.
