Environmental Technology and Services in Outdoor Air Quality Management, a Market Landscape and Investment Overview

A Breath of Fresh Air



A roadmap for investing in air quality sensing technologies to address climate, health, and air pollution.


Air pollution impacts the health of millions of people and contributes to climate change. Increasing consumer and government interest in local air quality combined with advancements in technology and reduced cost of measuring air quality will collectively lead to increased growth within the air quality measurement sector. The results will deliver better offerings for individual and government customers, cleaner air, profitable companies, and positive returns for investors.
