Tejas Rao, who represents our team in India, has been exploring this vibrant and dynamic ecosystem over the past year. 

In April 2024, he invited colleagues Clara Martiny and Basma Kharrat for a visit to engage with innovative leaders and potential partners in Bangalore and Chennai.

They attended the Micelio Community Meetup to discuss sustainable mobility, and Basma presented on Saint-Gobain’s commitment toward sustainability in the sector with attendees. 

The team also visited promising startups, including our portfolio company, Tvasta , who provided the opportunity to check out their first 3D printed house. 

And it was great to connect with colleagues at Saint-Gobain Group in India to learn how we can collaborate toward the innovation roadmap for the country, and with other ecosystem partners who share our commitment of a sustainable future for all. 

Many thanks to those who welcomed our team during their visit -- we are looking forward to visiting again soon!
