Solugen

Today's guests are Gaurab Chakrabarti, Co-Founder &amp; CEO, and Sean Hunt, Co-Founder &amp; CTO of Solugen.Solugen is a venture-backed biotech startup that produces high-performance chemicals from plant-derived substitutes. Our award-winning hydrogen peroxide technology was developed in-house by a team of doctors, scientists, and engineers from MIT.Before Solugen, Gaurab, who holds an M.D./Ph.D., researched the role of chemicals in cancer progression in medical school when he found an enzyme that turned sugar into hydrogen peroxide. Meanwhile, Sean, a graduate of MIT with a degree in chemical engineering, focused his research on improving traditional chemical manufacturing. Gaurab and Sean met playing poker at the University of Texas Southwestern, and in 2016, submitted their idea for Solugen to an MIT pitch competition. In 2017, Gaurab and Sean were named Forbes' 30 under 30 and joined the Y Combinator accelerator program, one of the rare startups outside software to get in. In September 2021, Solugen closed a series C round. I was looking forward to sitting down with Gaurab and Sean because I don't know much about the symbio world. Gaurab and Sean explain how Solugen started, the impact traditional chemical manufacturing has on climate, and what motivated them to focus on climate change. We also dive into Solugen's experience with Y Combinator, a discussion on a green premium, and how policy shapes the company's future. Gaurab and Sean are fantastic guests.Enjoy the show!You can find me on twitter @jjacobs22 or @mcjpod and email at info@myclimatejourney.co, where I encourage you to share your feedback on episodes and suggestions for future topics or guests.Episode recorded September 10th, 2021For more information about Solugen, visit: https://www.solugen.bio/For more information about this episode, visit: https://myclimatejourney.co/episodes/chakrabarti-hunt

Ep. 175: Gaurab Chakrabarti, Co-Founder & CEO, and Sean Hunt, Co-Founder & CTO, of Solugen

Chemicals are fundamental in modern society, from the stability of our infrastructures and the safety of our water. But most of these critical materials typically come from petrochemical sources. Now Solugen, a biochemicals company using cell-free enzyme manufacturing, has made the world's first carbon-negative chemical plant for key water treatment ingredients. Hear how the company has taken over an old petrochemical manufacturing plant in Texas, literally transforming the unsustainable methods of the past into the sustainable--and more cost-effective--methods of the future.
