Developed the carbon-negative product idea

CO-FOUNDER AND CTO
CO-FOUNDER AND CTO
During this period, I embarked on my entrepreneurial journey by focusing on climate-tech. The idea that became part of Carbon 13's acceleration program and reached TRL 4 became  a biotechnology startup contributing to biochar-based CDR by leveraging wild seaweed blooms.
  • Developed the carbon-negative product idea using my research knowledge, the current climate crisis in the Caribbean, and the growing voluntary carbon market demand.
  • Selected the problematic sargassum biomass and its use case as a feedstock for cost-effective, sustainable, and carbonnegative biochar production.
  • Engineered and optimized feedstock bioprocessing with high yields from wet biomass up to the final product: biochar powder.
  • Calculated and conducted a thorough carbon case of the business operations and its devised negative emissions.
  • Led the venture's research and development efforts by synthesizing the latest industry insights and designing on-site experiments to develop and validate the proof-of-concept.
  • Spearheaded business development: Secured a key partnership for biomass supply, leading to an expected 20% reduction in operational costs, and developed the USP that positioned us to attract Carbon 13?s funding opportunity.
