The Carbon Finance Market Just Got A Tech Upgrade!

Tech For Change

With global warming and climate change being the most pressing issues today, businesses are hurrying up to reduce their carbon footprint. With this in mind, Saurabh Saraf and Ankit Mathur founded OffsetFarm, which is building on the Polygon blockchain, enabling investors to pre-finance climate projects that are listed on the platform. The investments are represented by NFTs called SPROUT, along with a token called OFFSET that is equivalent to one tonne of CO2 saved. The Singapore-registered startup has a seven-member team, including the founders, and it aims to help developers and investors in the carbon market by leveraging the use of blockchain. Join in on the conversation between the founders and Kay as they share their experiences, and their plans for the company. Ankit Mathur and Saurabh Saraf are co-founders of the OffsetFarm. They are both alumni of the Delhi College of Engineering, and founded the company to offer a platform for both project developers and investors.
