Kentaro Kawamori, CEO of Persefoni: $114 Million Raised to Build the Climate Disclosure & Carbon Management Category
In today's episode of Category Visionaries, we speak with Kentaro Kawamori, CEO of Persefoni, a climate disclosure and carbon management platform that’s raised over $114 Million in funding, about why it’s time sustainability caught up with the development of data in other industries, and why Persefoni sees a whole world of opportunities in the ongoing green economic revolution. Providing a comprehensive toolkit for collecting, curating and presenting critical data about a company’s carbon footprint, Persefoni provides that all-important transparency to everyone from government regulators to private equity investors, helping people make the real right choices for the future of our planet as well as their portfolio.
We also speak about why sustainability has always been a part of their life since growing up in a German farming community, why it’s time carbon reporting caught up with financial accounting, the regulations forcing companies to reconsider their approach to sustainability, and why, for most businesses, true environmental impact reports are only just becoming a part of reality.
