Glad to be on another Forbes 30 under 30 list with my co-founder Przemyslaw Lorenczak, this time Forbes Australia's inaugural 30u30! Since we were on the Asia '22 list, Esper Satellite Imagery has: - been a part of the 776 Foundation Fellowship sponsored by Alexis Ohanian Sr. - raised a round led by Stellar Ventures - launched Australia's first commercial EO mission - lost it, and immediately got another sensor online to start serving our customers - booked $XXms in revenue for our imagery with mining companies, agtech customers and government agencies And we're just getting started. Massive thanks to Anastasia Santoreneos, Sarah O'Carroll and others at Forbes Australia for giving us this platform.

Mom, The New York Times called me a Changemaker! Unreal. Super excited to have been named a Changemaker by the NYT ♥️ As part of this honor, I will be leading a discussion at the annual NY Climate Week Climate Forward Summit. My session will delve into the status of funding / general support for youth-led climate movements and how we can better resource emerging leaders and organizations. As an ED of a leading Black youth-led climate organization, I’m excited to share my insights on how supporting youth strengthens our collective capacity to build the strongest climate team possible. I can’t wait!!! Will I see you there?

Big congratulations to 2022 fellow Shoaib Iqbal 🛰 📸 & the team at Esper Satellite Imagery for their incredible progress! Despite early challenges, they’re now delivering valuable data to clients & paving the way for future missions. Excited to see what’s next with OTR-2 and more!
Exciting news from space! 🚀✨ Lux Prima! One of Esper’s first-ever images from orbit! 🌍 Our demonstration mission, OTR-X, is up and running, and we’re actively tasking and selling imagery. Despite the setback of our first launch, Esper quickly rallied, leveraging our incredible partner network to revive the OTR mission stronger than ever. The result? We’re not only capturing groundbreaking data but also seeing a surge in customer interest, driving massive commercial success. 🎉 A huge thank you to Payload for sharing our journey! The following snap is a single band out of 150. If you're interested in tasking our imagery and empowering your mission with high-quality hyperspectral data reach out to [email protected] #space #satelliteimagery #innovation #spacetech #OTRX

We are thrilled to announce our first ever partnership with The Grand World. As our climate fellows work to address some of the world’s most urgent environmental challenges, we recognize how vital it is to provide them with the right guidance and support, which is why we’ve chosen to collaborate with the amazing team at The Grand. Through our partnership with The Grand, we’re providing our fellows with invaluable mentorship that equips them to overcome challenges and build the confidence needed to thrive. This collaboration lays the groundwork for these emerging leaders to bring their bold climate initiatives to life and make a lasting impact.
There’s something so inspiring about being in a room with a group of young leaders dedicating their lives and brilliance to save the planet. We had the opportunity to facilitate coaching exercises at 776 Foundation's Annual Summit in Austin where they brought together 40 Climate Fellows, and it gave me a renewed sense of hope in humanity and our future. ✨ That was just a small part of our journey together, and I can’t wait to see how The Grand World's partnership with 776 Foundation grows over time. The foundation was created in 2022 by Alexis Ohanian Sr. and led by Elisabeth Garvin, with a mission to equip the next generation of climate leaders with the support they need to bring world-changing ideas to life. The Grand will work closely with the Foundation to provide coaching and guidance to the fellows who are working to tackle some of the world’s most pressing climate challenges. One common thread we’ve heard from fellows since we started our work together was in moments when they were lost, or stuck, or uncertain, a conversation with another fellow or their coach helped them get on a stronger path forward. That’s exactly why we deeply believe in the transformative power of community and coaching. We’re excited to grow our impact (alongside our amazing coaches Ally Sprague, Robert DuBois, Seisei Tatebe-Goddu) by supporting the third cohort of climate fellows starting this week! Through this ongoing partnership, The Grand and 776 Foundation are committed to nurturing the leadership skills and emotional resilience of these young innovators, ensuring they have the tools and support system to turn their audacious ideas into a reality. We look forward to seeing the game-changing impact these Fellows will have on the world! Let’s go! 💪 If you want to hear more about 776 Foundation and their impactful work, please join me and Elisabeth Garvin for A Grand Time on October 17th. Sign up link in the comments below!

2023 UN-Habitat Scroll of Honour Awardee|| 776 Climate Fellow|| Bestseller Foundation YEA Awardee ‘23|| Meta Young Climate Prize Winner ‘23|| OPC 2nd Prize ‘23|| Environmental Sustainability Enthusiast|| Climate Change||
I recently met with other 776 Climate Fellows in Austin, Texas, where we gathered to exchange ideas and energize our collective mission to combat climate change. This journey was made even more remarkable by the presence of Alexis Ohanian Sr. co-founder of Reddit, and Elisabeth Garvin, our Program Director of the 776 Fellowship. A true highlight was meeting Joe G. co-founder of Airbnb, whose insights were incredibly inspiring. This fellowship is more than a grant- it's a robust network of changemakers, and I'm grateful to be a part of it. We're ready to take bold steps forward together. #776Fellowship #ClimateChange #Sustainability #Innovation
