BLOSSOM

With headquarters in California, the team behind Blossom, a smart water controller that cuts utility bills and saves water, knows a thing or two about the need for water conservation. Blossom leverages the power of cloud computing and real time weather data to optimize the irrigation schedule used to manage existing sprinklers. Blossom also gives users easy access to control the watering of their garden from their smart phone, tablet or computer. With 75 prior patent filings between them, and backing from companies such as Vizio and Accton, Blossom's founders are on a mission to leverage their experience in consumer electronics, water resources, cloud based services, networking and hardware to bring a product to market that can make a difference.
