Episode 3 - Rahul Shendure, Chief Executive Officer, CarbonBuilt

Decarbonization Disruptors Podcast

I had the privilege to interview Rahul Shendure, Chief Executive Officer of CarbonBuilt. CarbonBuilt's technology enables the production of ultra low-carbon concrete products, driving gigatonne-scale greenhouse gas reductions through the cost-effective mineralization of carbon dioxide

Rahul shared his career journey starting in the Chemical & Plastics manufacturing industry with the mission to focus on solutions for environmental pollution. Rahul talked about his introduction to early stage investing in cleantech and healthcare startups and how he evaluates companies for investment both by their solution and more importantly their people.

We discussed in detail Rahul's role at CarbonBuilt and how they are tackling the massive problem of carbon reduction in the manufacturing of concreate. It was enlightening to hear how CarbonBuilt is revolutionizing the way concreate is produced, a process that that largely been unchanged in over 100 years.

There is not silver bullet in decarbonization, but CarbonBuilt is a great example of advanced technology to reduce global carbon emissions implemented in a practical and cost effective way.

Thanks, Rahul, for an insightful conversation!
