Terra.do, a climate career platform, has raised $5 million in seed funding led by Avaana Capital and including SIG, the TELUS Pollinator Fund for Good, Precursor, BEENEXT, City Light, Hummingbird Firm, and Avesta.
Terra.do, founded in 2020 by Anshuman Bapna, Dr. Kamal Kapadia, and Mayank Jain, bring together a diverse community of professionals from critical climate industries like energy, mobility, and regenerative agriculture, as well as top experts in policy, science, and finance.
Anshuman Bapna, co-founder and CEO of Terra.do said that the time has come, and the climate crisis will not go away. The firm is on the verge of real change as both the industry and talent have awakened to the consequences of the crisis and the effort required. There are opportunities in every corner of the world and in every aspect of society. Terra.do’s mission is more important than ever with funding secured and a new app launched, we are ready to move at breakneck speed to contribute to the resolution of this crisis.
Anjali Bansal, founder and chairperson of Avaana Capital said that Avaana believes that climate and sustainability are the next digital. The climate crisis will necessitate the transformation and incorporation of sustainability into every aspect of our economy, resulting in the emergence of the climate economy. The current talent funnel for climate- and sustainability-trained professionals is broken, leaving a large gap that must be filled at the Internet scale. Terra.do’s innovative new app and a unique integrated approach that combines learning and jobs and is supported by a highly engaged community will enable better outcomes and assist each of us in becoming climate workers.
