Perfect start-up ecosystem in Freiburg

Before the company was founded, Hannes Junginger and Matthias Ansorge (founders and CEOs) and their team worked intensively with scientists and pioneers in the biochar industry, familiarised themselves with the value chains and fine-tuned the idea. In addition, the foundation and development was significantly influenced by the Grünhof and the SMART GREEN ACCELERATOR in Freiburg. This support provided them with answers to essential questions - from financing and team formation to internationalisation. The location in Freiburg, with the Grünhof as a co-working space, offers the perfect ecosystem for Carbonfuture's growth. It not only offers support and networks, but also an environment that values sustainability and innovation.

The company is committed to increasing permanent carbon capture by a factor of 5,000 in order to achieve the required 10 Gt per year by 2050. It's an ambitious goal, but one that is achievable through the hard work and dedication of the team.
