Trading Pixels and Software for Restoring the Ocean and Climate

As Earth Day 2025 approaches on April 22, this month’s TechTuesday turns its focus to climate action. Join us as we spotlight Planetary Technologies – a company transforming the fight against climate change with groundbreaking ocean-based carbon removal solutions. A Top 20 finalist in the prestigious $100M Carbon Removal XPRIZE, their journey from a humble kitchen table pitch to the creation of a business leading the world in ocean-based carbon removal is one you won’t want to miss.

Hear from Mike Kelland, CEO of Planetary Technologies, as he shares their remarkable journey, innovative approaches to carbon removal, and the vision for a sustainable future. Post Mike’s presentation, we’ll move into a fireside chat where Mike teams up with Jack Gulas, Managing Director of Improving, and early investor, for a stimulating discussion with Veronica Farmer, VP of Marketing at Wesley Clover International.

Reflecting on their shared history of building a software company 25 years ago, the conversation will explore how they’ve transitioned from pixels and software to molecules and chemistry, illustrating the power of clean technology in addressing the planet’s most pressing challenges. Learn why investing in climate-focused innovation makes both ethical and business sense.

Thank you,

The TechTuesday Team
