HAWTHORNE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#AgTech–Moleaer, a global leader in nanobubble technology, today announced that Hoshang Subawalla has joined the company as its Chief Business Officer, a newly created role that reflects the company’s rapid commercial expansion. With more than 18 years of experience in the global water treatment business, Subawalla will oversee Moleaer’s commercial strategy, driving revenue growth as the company continues to expand geographically and into new applications.
“We are thrilled to welcome Hoshang at this pivotal time in Moleaer’s growth,” said Nick Dyner, CEO of Moleaer. “We recently installed our 2,200th nanobubble generator and have installations in more than 50 countries, a significant milestone that speaks to the growing interest in nanobubble technology and Moleaer’s leadership in this sector. With the global interest in Moleaer’s nanobubble technology expanding from a range of industries around the world, we are fortunate to have someone with Hoshang’s experience leading global teams, delivering a suite of solutions to diverse customers from multiple verticals.

Last year, Moleaer raised a $40 million Series C financing round led by funds managed by Apollo (NYSE: APO) and joined by Husqvarna, a strategic partner, and existing investors. This financing round brought the technology company’s total funding raised to $61 million.
“The water sector touches nearly every industry, and as those industries navigate challenges brought on by climate change, breakthrough technologies are going to be at the forefront of solutions,” said Subawalla. “Nanobubble technology is one of those breakthroughs that has the potential to truly revolutionize how water is used across hundreds of applications in dozens of critical industries.
