Co-founder of refurbed // wants to do his part for society
Joined March 2010
Super exiting development. Recycling of EV batteries at scale is possible already.
Tesla co-founder JB Straubel has built an EV-battery colossus in the scrublands of Nevada. He spent the day giving me the first look at everything @redwoodmat has been building. It starts with *30 acres* of old batteries headed headed for recycling 🧵

Interesting data on climate action showing the massive division in our society. Most people think it's absolutely not enough (0), way too much (10) or it's fine (5).

And doing our part in saving the world was the reason why we started refurbed in the first place. It’s the primary cause why we get thousands of applications to join us and why our amazing team works hard every day. It’s their success.

In a world dominated by bad news, for me this is one of the bright spots. We were able to raise significant funding at the darkest hour, and that for a sustainable business! We want to change the way people consume and enable them to live more sustainably. A daring mission.

A bold mission, profitable growth and excellent execution is our operational mindset and were the winning arguments for this fundraise. Our investors believe in what we do. They are more than impressed with our metrics. They love how we run the company.

David vs Goliath(s). It’s us against Apple. Us against all the telco giants. Us against Amazon. But we are prevailing. More than that. At rock bottom of the biggest fundraising crisis of the last decade, we raised our biggest funding round yet: 57 mn USD Series C.

If you ever asked yourself what you would do the 1930s & 40s, you’re doing it now.

Wohl das Stärkste, was ich von deutschen Politikern je gehört habe. Jeder Satz hallt nach. Robert Habeck ist in diesen für Deutschland entscheidenden Tagen der Anker, den das Land braucht. Leben wir „Nie wieder!“ - oder behaupten wir es nur gelegentlich? https://t.co/RfFGyuD12R
