In this latest episode of our Founder series, I invite you to join me in a dynamic roundtable discussion with the visionary leaders shaping the future of sustainable technologies.
We continue our journey with Cleantech Open Northeast’s Senior Director, Beth Zonis, and meet four emerging finalists from the 2023–2024 season.

This marks our fourth encounter showcasing the incredible ecosystem that Cleantech Open cultivates: an environment where the most promising minds tackle critical issues in energy, manufacturing, and resource efficiency. The new cohort brings fresh perspectives, proven research track records, and cutting-edge industrial partnerships. In this session, you’ll hear directly from them:

Gianluca Roscioli, Founder of Arculus Solutions: Enabling hydrogen transport in existing natural gas pipelines through an MIT-developed hydrogen-barrier coating.

Arjav Shah, Founder of hydroGel: Using novel polymeric resins for more efficient, cost-effective industrial purification processes in food, pharma, and biotech.

Marissa Beatty, Co-Founder of Turnover Labs: Converting mixed CO2 emissions into valuable chemical building blocks, creating a circular process that reduces waste and emissions.

Jeff Maelstrom, Founder of Green Spear: Transforming CO2 into high-quality graphite for EV batteries and energy storage, strengthening domestic supply chains and reducing carbon footprints.
