Both the media and events started going international in 2009, expanding to the neighbouring Nordics & Baltics. This growth continued until 2012, when the company nearly shut-down as the founders wanted to move-on to other projects. At that point Dmitri Sarle and Greg Anderson took over the company and re-founded ArcticStartup with Jan Ameri joining very shortly. | Convertible Note / May 19, 2022 | |

Carbo Culture is a Nordic-American carbon tech startup that removes carbon from the atmosphere. Carbo Culture removes atmospheric carbon and turns it into a functional material called biocarbon through its own patented technology that exposes woody waste to an ultra-high temperature for an instant. But that’s not all. The biocarbon’s benefitsare twofold: 1) the carbon maintains a stable form that keeps out of the atmosphere for up to 1,000 years and 2) it’s a functional material that can be applied to further environmental benefits, such as biomaterials or soil.In other words, Carbo Culture’s biocarbon not only has the power to remove carbon from the atmosphere and help mitigate climate change, but also help adapt to climate change by using the material itself. | $6.2M / Seed / Apr 14, 2021 |
