MCJ AMA: Anshuman Bapna - Terra.do
Join us in the MCJ Community Slack for our next MCJ Ask-Me-Anything with Anshuman Bapna, Founder of Terra.do.
Let’s meet our guest…
Meet Anshuman: Anshuman is a serial entrepreneur. He co-founded and sold his first startup while in undergrad, seeing it through the first boom & bust on the internet. After his MBA at Stanford, he spent some time selling solar lights in Vietnam and started a non-profit that helped Indian Members of Parliament develop their constituencies. All this while working with Deloitte, then Google in New York. He moved to Bangalore in 2009 to start a travel planning app that was acquired by a NASDAQ-listed online travel company. After five years as their Chief Product Officer, a classic midlife crisis sent him in search of what was truly worth working on. He currently lives in Palo Alto and often finds himself taking climate inspiration (and startup advice!) from his two kids these days.
About Terra.do: Terra.do combines immersive cohort-based learning programs with a powerful community of climate insiders and jobs from the top climate employers across the world. Think of them like a LinkedIn for Climate, with an ambitious goal to move 100M people into climate work this decade.
