Software startup TempoQuest secured $2.5 million in seed financing. Three investors participated in the round, including S-Cubed Capital.
Established to meet the need for faster, more accurate weather forecasts, the company’s software solutions are designed to run on graphic processor unit accelerators instead of CPUs with the intent of increasing the speed and accuracy of analysis. Satellite sensors, drones, radar, etc., collect global weather data, which TempoQuest processes and provides to The Weather Company and AccuWeather.
According to President Gene Pache, this round of financing will be used to accelerate development of the company’s proprietary weather forecasting software solutions.
