Alpheus is a VC-level investment fund that exclusively targets ESG/Impact-oriented "unconventional" technologies in sustainably providing, storing and cleaning water. The fund's thesis is that the conventional water model and technologies and are tapped-out and over-extended, and that Water is uniquely impactful in addressing all 17 of the UN's SDGs. Rising water scarcity is evidenced by the many dry lakes, rivers that no longer reach the ocean, and the majority of underground aquifers that are being drawn down at an unsubstainable rate. Exaccerbating this deficit is water pollution, which is leading to skyrocketing healthcare costs throughout the world. Alpheus targets technologies that require less energy/CO2, are circular/regenerative in allowing water to be safely reused, and that reduce the contaminants of our planet's most precious resource.
