Ori Shaashua
Ori Shaashua is one of the founders of Gigablue, the world’s leading marine carbon dioxide removal company. He’s at the helm of a commercial effort that has already secured over 300 kilotons in signed offtake agreements and is scaling toward a gigaton of CO₂ removed by 2035. Ori’s focus is on turning CDR into a serious, reliable market—building trust with conservative sectors like aviation, shipping, and energy, and delivering a product that meets the highest standards of durability, measurability, and environmental integrity. With a background in AI, cybersecurity, and real-world tech ventures, Ori brings both sharp commercial instincts and operational discipline to Gigablue’s growth. His ability to move from vision to revenue, and from innovation to market credibility, is helping define what scaled, science-backed carbon removal looks like in practice.
