Victoria’s Niricson has raised a $10 million Series A funding round led by MUUS Climate partners.
Founded in 2020, Niricson works with asset owners and managers such as utilities, federal governments, state governments, and engineering consulting companies to help them inspect, manage, and predict the performance of their assets through time.
