Jacob is not just a founder but a true visionary regarding climate tech. He's passionate about making a real difference in the world, and it's contagious. His dedication to the cause is truly inspiring. He's a force to be reckoned with, and I'm excited to see all the incredible things he and The Climate Tech Handbook achieve in the future!”
