About the event

What happens when a world-class designer and a climate-focused entrepreneur sit down to talk about solving the planet’s biggest problems?


This isn’t your average founder fireside.


Join Rodrigo García González, co-founder and co-CEO of Notpla—the company behind Ooho!, the edible seaweed-based packaging that’s changing how we think about plastic—and Anshuman Bapna, founder of Terra.do, the global climate platform aiming to mobilize 100 million people into climate work.


Together, they’ll explore:

  • 🧪 From Idea to Impact: How radical design and material innovation can take on plastic pollution
  • 🚀 Building for Change: The path to scaling sustainable ventures in a world built for the status quo
  • 💡 Climate x Creativity: What improvisation, entrepreneurship, and climate work have in common
  • 🌍 Finding Purpose: How both speakers navigated career pivots to work on what matters most


Expect an energizing, candid conversation between two unconventional thinkers reshaping the future — one with biodegradable bubbles, the other with a movement to redefine climate work.
