THE ENVGO FOUNDING TEAM
Pioneers
Mission, Expertise, and Approach
Mission
To become the global leader in next-generation marine technology, powering intelligent, autonomous, and extremely efficient vessels through high performance hydrofoils and advanced autonomy.
Proven Defence Expertise
The core team first designed and built autonomous flight control systems at Aeryon Labs, an early drone industry innovator acquired by FLIR Systems in 2019.
Our Approach
To create the highest performance solutions, we tightly integrate system design: drivetrains, hydrofoils, batteries, and control systems engineered as a unified platform for maximum performance.
We see a different future
The problem isn't the water
Marine design has long operated within limits that were never truly questioned: high drag, extreme energy demands, and slow progress toward intelligence, efficiency, and sustainability.
While other industries became software and AI-driven, the water remained bound by convention. We saw something else: not incremental improvement, but a fundamentally different way for vessels to move, perform, and think.
Intelligence meets flight
ENVGO was founded to bring that vision to life. We are integrating proven tech from Aerospace, Robotics, AI, and EVs to solve marine challenges:
We transform boats into intelligent, high-efficiency machines, lifting them above the water, improving efficiency by a factor of 4, and enabling real-time awareness, autonomy, and safety far beyond traditional vessels. This is not refinement. It is a redefinition of marine.
Proven minds, new domain
Built in Canada and led by serial entrepreneur Mike Peasgood, ENVGO is founded by the team behind Aeryon Labs, the creators of the SkyRanger drone, an autonomous aerial system (UAS) acquired by FLIR Systems in 2019.
With deep expertise in aerospace, avionics, and AI, ENVGO is bringing battle-tested autonomy and systems engineering into a new domain: building Canadian sovereign marine technology for defence, transportation, and recreation.
