With overwhelming interest in our mastitis detection technology QuadSense, we are excited to have secured a $940,000 capital investment to help get it to dairy farmers sooner and meet the significant increase in demand. This capital round has been led by venture capital investor, Pacific Channel alongside Enterprise Angels , MIG Angels, and NZVC. It follows an initial $750,000 investment from Pacific Channel. We have been blown away by the interest we’ve had in QuadSense, including at last week’s Fieldays. It is clear that dairy farmers see it as a user-friendly, affordable solution to mastitis detection that’s easy to install and use. Before Fieldays, more than 450 farmers had already registered their interest in our product and 400 units were already pre-ordered by New Zealand farmers. This injection of capital will help us ramp up production, accelerate sales and get QuadSense into the hands of more dairy farmers, so they can take control of mastitis and protect their profitability and animal health.

Quite fascinating how dairy farmers are interested in detecting mastitis when so few admit they have it and even fewer want to prevent it. At least the universities, vets and dairy equipment companies won't attack the product as it doesn't solve a problem - just shines a light on it in private.
Thrilled to have supported you to get this stage in your business. It’s been great to watch your progress over the last two years and look forward to what the future holds!!👏👏
Thrilled to be supporting the team as you accelerate sales and look at secondary markets internationally
Stella effort to all those invoved. Congrats.
A cow for a long time in the living room stops eating and therefore producing more milk. The reason why the use of spray?
Well done Liam Kampshof - it is not a simple task to build an early stagenagritech business! I understand farmers using Mastatest customers find Quadsense a useful mastitis screening tool before finding the bug to use the right bugs!
Legend, awesome work mate! 👏🏼
It's exciting to see it all come together! Congratulations!!
This is amazing!!! Well done Liam Kampshof & team 🙌

6moAn additional thought - each time I talk to anyone from NZ I get told that I need to understand that mastitis is really not an issue due to the grass based herds and low production. Kinda looks like that isn't true although already suspected having milked cows myself and been on dairies around the world.
