Our Story
We took a year off to travel and volunteer with our family and realized first hand the impact of climate change on the most vulnerable communities around the world. From droughts in Kenya’s conservancy, to floods in a Cambodian art school, and failing crops in Mozambique villages, our experiences cemented our commitment to driving change through EVAS.
Our goal is to leverage our experience building tech businesses from first sale to hundreds of millions in revenue, building teams from first hire to thousands, and our global network of executives and investors to accelerate the work climate founders are doing to create a sustainable future.
