Alphabet X, also known as the “moonshot factory,” has always been at the forefront of technological innovation. Their latest venture, Tidal, is set to revolutionize the way we approach salmon aquaculture. With a focus on sustainability and efficiency, Tidal is paving the way for a new era in food production.
The Googley Approach
Based in Trondheim, Norway, Tidal is taking a Googley approach to the industry. By utilizing a combination of sensors, robotics, data science, and AI, the company is able to provide fish farmers with real-time insights into their harvests. This technology not only gives farmers a fuller picture of their operations but also helps them identify and address potential issues before they escalate.
Tidal’s technology is empowering fish farmers around the world to make more sustainable decisions. With a focus on reducing the environmental and economic costs associated with feed, Tidal is leading the way in creating a more efficient and environmentally friendly aquaculture industry. By providing farmers with the tools they need to optimize their operations, Tidal is helping to ensure a more sustainable future for the planet.
The Spinout Plan
Tidal’s spinout from Alphabet X has always been part of the plan. As Alphabet tightens its belt on its “other bets,” Tidal is ready to take the next step as an independent company. With backing from financial and strategic partners who share their vision, Tidal is well on its way to commercializing its technology and expanding its reach around the world.
Tidal is currently in “full growth mode,” with plans to double or even triple the number of systems deployed over the next couple of years. With support from investors such as Perry Creek Capital, Ichthus Venture Capital, and Futurum Ventures, Tidal is well-positioned to lead the way in sustainable aquaculture. As the company continues to grow and expand, the future looks bright for Tidal and the aquaculture industry as a whole.
Tidal’s innovative approach to salmon aquaculture is setting a new standard for the industry. By leveraging cutting-edge technology and a focus on sustainability, Tidal is empowering fish farmers to make more informed decisions and reduce their environmental impact. As the company continues to grow and expand, it is poised to make a significant impact on the future of aquaculture.
