I did not set out to start a company. I left my previous job wanting to take a long break. Mere weeks into it, I found myself having lunch with @hmoniz and @diogomonica. On the table? A real problem and a real solution that was too good not to pursue. Skip to today, and @finisterralabs is announcing our seed with @haunventures and Lightshift.

What was so exciting? We all keep hearing about how data is the future, but those claims are outdated. The future is here and data is central to the key challenges that we face today as a species. Yet have you experienced the misery of cross-referencing large climate datasets?

@baselightdb was born to change that. Take a distributed universal catalogue, add query execution, and you can now combine data from different sources more efficiently than with traditional analytics platforms. That mythical application that is actually better decentralised.

@adlrocha joined us, and we assembled a brilliant team together. We launched our alpha. We iterated on user feedback. We onboarded thousands of datasets. We came out of stealth. And now we're announcing our seed round, essential to achieve our lofty goals.
