Global organisations need to translate sustainability
ambitions into actions with granular accuracy.
SINGAPORE, Sept. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Zevero, a global
carbon accounting platform is proud to announce its inaugural seed
funding round. The investment was led by Spiral Capital, with
participation from East Ventures and several angel investors. This
first raise marks a milestone of Zevero's ability to grow global
sustainability impact.
Having secured significant wins in the UK and European markets
over the past three years by helping major consumer-goods brands

goals, the US$ 7 million investment
will accelerate Zevero's scaling efforts in global key markets such
as Japan, U.S., Australia, and Asia-Pacific countries. This funding will
enable the platform to meet the increasing global demand for
comprehensive sustainability solutions, with a particular focus on
enhancing its decarbonisation capabilities.

sustainability goals by using AI to match emission factors,
integrating supply chain data, and offering global climate
expertise along their decarbonisation journey. Amid rising
regulatory and consumer demands, Zevero's platform empowers
businesses to assess their environmental impact across the full
lifecycle of their products and operations.
The platform integrates advanced LCA methodologies with carbon
accounting tools, offering businesses a detailed understanding of
their environmental impacts and enabling them to make informed
decisions to achieve their sustainability goals.
"Following a year of significant global commitments to net zero
emissions, we have seen a surge in demand for robust, data-driven
sustainability solutions. This funding allows us to expand our
capabilities and continue delivering the innovative tools that
businesses need to meet their regulatory and commercial
obligations. The team is excited to lead the industry in providing
accurate, scalable and actionable insights for carbon accounting,"
said Shigeo Taniuchi, Co-Founder and
Global CEO of Zevero.
"As demand for transparent, reliable sustainability data grows,
Zevero is addressing business challenges with its carbon accounting
tool and LCA solutions. Led by Mr. Taniuchi, with global management
expertise, Mr. Kuratomi, a serial entrepreneur, and Mr. Richardson
and Mr. Wade, both accomplished in European carbon accounting,
Zevero's leadership highlights its global reach. We're excited to
support their ongoing growth and market expansion," said
Tomokazu Okuno, General Partner, CEO
of Spiral Capital.

enhance our platform, expand globally, and continue supporting our
customers on their path to a net zero future," said Ben Richardson, Chief Sustainability Officer of
Zevero.
This funding round is two-fold, with Zevero continuing the raise
