Experience is a great teacher of knowledge and can act as an accelerant in determining how you want to make the most impact in life. For James McWalter over the last year and ½ he’s chosen to add his voice and expertise towards the fight to bring awareness to the effects of climate change. Currently, he is working on a startup to decarbonize food supply chains. He also hosts the Carbotnic Podcast where he has long-form conversations with experts in cleantech.
In the past he was the founder of Hale, a personal training marketplace. Additionally, he was Director of Operations at Respondent, a market research marketplace and Director of Business Development and employee #1 at Hello Vera, an AI chatbot startup acquired by a tech giant. Before that, he sold data to US quantitative hedge funds and portfolio analytics tools to EMEA asset and sovereign wealth managers. He grew up on an organic farm in Co.
