While most tech founders chase SaaS multiples and digital disruption, Burndy operates in the physical world where connections literally keep the lights on. With $184.7M in revenue and 603 employees, this isn't a startup—it's an industrial institution that's been perfecting the art of the electrical connection for decades.

"Burndy doesn't sell software—they sell the physical infrastructure that makes software possible."

What makes Burndy fascinating is their digital presence—or lack thereof. Despite being a $184M business, their website shows zero tracked traffic. This isn't a failure; it's a feature. Their customers aren't browsing websites—they're engineers, procurement specialists, and utility managers buying through established B2B channels. The social media presence (Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn) exists but isn't optimized for lead generation. This is industrial B2B in its purest form: relationships, certifications, and reliability over SEO and conversion funnels.

• Pure-play industrial manufacturing: No SaaS, no apps, just physical connectors
• Hubbell ecosystem provides distribution moat that startups can't replicate
• Revenue per employee ($306K) indicates efficient, mature operations
• Digital presence is minimal—sales happen through channels, not clicks
• Leadership team focused on utility, telecom, and data center verticals
