Vrashabh Kapate

Vrashabh comes from a farming family in India and has prior experiences in finance, nonprofit management, and government consulting. Experiencing the changing weather patterns and with the intention to scale his successes as manager of his family farm, he decided to pursue a master’s with an emphasis on climate change and agriculture, where his research focused on barriers to smallholder farmer participation in voluntary carbon markets. Upon graduation, Vrashabh joined EDF+Business to leverage the role of food & agriculture companies and supply chains in driving climate action.
