Gaël is our CTO and has been suffering from a decade-long passion for unlocking the potential of CO₂ as a resource using electrochemistry. He gained his PhD in Chemistry from the University of Bristol, specializing in experimental and theoretical approaches in CO₂ electrolysis. In the final stages of his PhD, he joined Deep Science Ventures, thereafter co-founding Mission Zero and Supercritical Solutions, both of which aim to address the cost of two fundamental industrial building blocks: CO₂ and H₂. He also loves fermentation.
