Peterborough, CA -- May 21, 2020 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire --
Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (OTC:
RAKR) announced the signing today of an agreement for the sale
of $4.7 million in preferred shares with a new investment
group led by Aris Kekedjian, former Chief Investment Officer of The
General Electric Company (GE). After a decade of R&D and
product testing, this sale will provide Rainmaker initial capital
to enter the commercial water market as an innovative
Water-as-a-Service provider. Closing of the financing is expected
in the third quarter and is subject to certain closing
conditions.
Kekedjian joined Rainmaker as a Strategic Advisor in January and
has been instrumental in evolving Rainmaker’s business plan to
scale its disruptive technology platforms to provide water
solutions around the world. He commented, “The WHO estimates that
inadequate water supply and sanitation costs the global economy
over $250B a year and an estimated $7-10 trillion is required to
upgrade, maintain and build water infrastructure. Rainmaker’s
distributed, scalable, cost-effective and sustainable solutions are
well-positioned to address these human challenges while presenting
a significant opportunity for investors.”
Rainmaker has identified multiple subsectors of the water
industry that are grossly underserved, require complex solutions,
or cost-effective alternatives. These include solutions for
islands, arid environments and remote communities, as well as
highly effective applications in military, humanitarian and
emergency management situations. The company offers
economically attractive industrial applications in agriculture,
natural resources, food & beverage, healthcare and commercial
development.
Rainmaker CEO Michael Skinner stated, “This raise led by Mr.
Kekedjian will provide the initial capital required for
commercialization and to execute on our current project pipeline.
The water market is long overdue for a versatile, scalable,
cost-effective and sustainable clean water solution, and
Rainmaker’s technology and Water-as-a-Service model is ready to
supply it.”
