Tom Freyberg’s Story

Having worked as a journalist covering international water projects for more than eight years, Tom Freyberg felt frustrated. Frustrated that while we have some amazing innovations and solutions to water and climate problems, these innovations were being let down by poor communications. Project success was lumpy and siloed, leaving stories untold and the potential for wider adoption unrealised.

This led him to found Atlantean Media in 2018 with a clear vision: to help connect people to water and climate innovations.

A graduate of the University of Exeter, Tom founded Atlantean from a need to bring engineering-based content to life, the organisation now represents and advises public and private-sector clients across the water and climate-tech space. An award-winning environmental journalist, he has had articles and comments published in The Times, The Guardian, CNN, the Grocer magazine and a Swedish institute publication, WaterFront.

We look at the world through a creative lens. Atlantean Media are a hearty, creative, tight-knit crew of journalists, creatives, videographers, PR strategists and marketeers who share a common mission: to transform how we communicate water and climate solutions.

Tom is a skilled speaker and moderator with a diverse portfolio, ranging from high-level industry events like Aquatech’s Innovation Forum and the SWAN Forum to the more unconventional F**K Up Nights and the prestigious World Water Week in Stockholm. His journalistic background and engaging sense of humor allow him to connect with audiences and effectively communicate complex topics.

As well as the content director for Aquatech Global events, Tom is the co-creator and co-host of ‘The Stream with Will and Tom’
