Welcome to another episode of Category Visionaries — the show that explores GTM stories from tech's most innovative B2B founders. In today's episode, we're speaking with Manik Suri, CEO and Founder of GlacierGrid (formerly known as Therma°), a cooling intelligence platform that has raised over $30 Million in funding. Here are the most interesting points from our conversation: Manik's Transition to Tech Entrepreneurship: From his roots in law and public service, Manik was motivated to pursue technology as a means to effect social change more dynamically outside the confines of government, focusing on public benefits through innovation. The Inception of GlacierGrid: Recognizing the outdated methods in food industry temperature control, which led to significant resource wastage and operational inefficiencies, inspired the creation of GlacierGrid to modernize and optimize these systems. Innovative Technology for Efficiency: GlacierGrid introduces IoT sensors and data analytics into refrigeration and HVAC systems, enabling real-time monitoring and adjustments that enhance energy efficiency and reduce unnecessary waste. Overcoming Adoption Barriers: One of the key challenges GlacierGrid faces is convincing businesses to adopt new technology solutions amid numerous operational demands, despite the clear advantages of their system. Growth Strategy: The company employs a strategic mix of thought leadership, direct sales, and digital marketing efforts to educate potential customers about the transformative benefits of intelligent cooling solutions. The Power of Storytelling: Manik highlights the critical role that effective storytelling plays in both fundraising and marketing, considering it an essential skill that can be refined to inspire and mobilize change.

We all depend on the cold chain to keep our foods, vaccines, and medical equipment safely chilled from production to use. This energy intensive process requires constant monitoring. As CEO of Therma, Manik Suri deploys small mobile sensors that monitor conditions to optimize energy efficiency and quality along the cold chain. His work is infused with his family's legacy of service to others, and his team is dedicated to leveraging technology to improve the well-being of both people and planet. In this episode, Hilary Langer is joined by Therma CEO Manik Suri to discuss the impact of the cold chain on human health, food waste and the planet. Links: ThermaThe Role Of Businesses In Creating More Environmentally Friendly Cooling Systems (forbes.com)Manik Suri on LinkedInBeth Simone Noveck Episode recorded September 13, 2023 Email your feedback to Chad, Gil, and Hilary at climatepositive@hasi.com or tweet them to @ClimatePosiPod.

No one was making tech for the big public problems. That's the reality that inspired Manik Suri to found Therma° (www.hellotherma.com), a technology startup with the mission to combat climate change by reducing energy use, food waste, and refrigerant leakage across the global cooling sector.10% of global CO2 emissions are due to HVAC and refrigeration, with few measures in place to curb the high waste and usage from the commercial industry. With Google Nest and others already addressing the residential market, Therma recently raised $19M to decarbonize cooling in the commercial industry.Join the conversation between Keith and Manik to learn: Why there is an excised opportunity for public-private partnerships now, and how that could impact your business for the betterWhy the cooling crisis is self-perpetuating and how innovations like Therma° are breaking the cycleSteps companies can take to address cooling inefficiencies to reduce their emissions and lower cooling costsFollow Therma, and subscribe to the Age of Adoption podcast here.

In this episode, Silas Mahner (@silasmahner) speaks with Manik Suri (@ManikVSuri) the Founder and CEO of Therma, an IoT device + software company that helps any organization using refrigeration to reduce cap ex and as a by-product, reduce the dirty energy assets on the grid. We cover his background, the problem, and the solution they are working on, and then go through building the business with a heavy focus on the work of raising money. Manik has a really interesting background having been a top achiever academically, going on to PE, and then government prior to launching Therma. Enjoy the Episode!

Manik Suri calls himself a jack of all trades. He went about his career doing lots of different things, and figured out most of what he didn't want to do. He started out an academic, then went into private equity investment, then did a spin in Government, then went to law school - and finally, landed in the tech world. He grew up in Fresno, and ended up back in Cali, specifically in the Bay Area. Outside of tech, he is married with a young family, and a dog named Espresso.Lucas Tepman was originally born in Argentina, and came to the US around 5 years ago. He started out his career in public affairs and politics, working at an NGO and promoting the acceleration of sustainability. He came to study at UC Berkeley as a recipient of the Fulbright Scholarship, and eventually he explored solutions via high impact venture capital. This is where he met Manik.Manik and Lucas stumbled into the problem they are solving today. A decade ago, Manik wanted to solve big public problems. He saw opportunities in the food industry, and created a software solution to replace the clipboard. What they figured out was most people were checking temperatures, and did need a digital clipboard - the needed the process automated.This is the creation story of Therma.SponsorsAirbyteDopplerHost.ioIPInfomablSupportZebraLinksWebsite: https://www.hellotherma.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maniksuri/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucas-tepman-0474783b/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Today on the podcast we hear from Manik Suri, Founder and CEO of Therma, a technology startup whose mission is to help protect our food, health and planet.  Manik had storied careers as an investment banker working on Wall Street, then as a Harvard trained lawyer working on Capital hill and yet he pivoted from New York and DC to join the ranks of Silicon Valley founders in order to fight climate change. Manik founded Therma in 2019, to eliminate food waste, improve energy efficiency and reduce refrigerant emissions, three critical aspects of a net zero future. If these concepts sound foreign and unrelated to your daily life, fear not we get into them in detail, during the show.  On the flipside, companies you've likely heard of companies that work with Therma to reduce their emissions. Namely, McDonalds, Starbucks, NOW Foods, 7-Eleven and Marriott Hotels. Manik's pivot from a trajectory destined for the met gala to the chewing on glass life as an entrepreneur is one example of many where individuals are making career altering decisions to help move the world closer to net zero emissions. Manik pulls back the curtain on  the “why” behind his move and at the same time this episode puts a spotlight on an emission area that is significantly less well known, “cold chain emissions.” You can keep up with Manik on LinkedIn and Twitter, and you can follow Therma's newest Research and Impact at their website.

When you think of infrastructure, you probably think of roads and bridges. Maybe if you're familiar with Harbor, you think of connectivity or even the supply chain. What might not be top of mind is the cold chain – a critical delivery and storage infrastructure for refrigerated goods and pharmaceuticals (including the Covid-19 vaccine). Cold storage and transportation are critical to human health, ensuring food, medications and vaccines are delivered safely. But there is a lot of room for improvement in the cold chain – our analysis over the last several years indicates that between 15-20% of global fresh food production is lost annually due to ineffective cold chain technologies and systems. Truly efficient cold chains require an integrated ecosystem of open data, data sharing and data management across a number of disparate systems. We recently sat down with Manik Suri, CEO and founder of Therma, a company dedicated to energy efficient food refrigeration solutions, to discuss the future of cold storage, a smarter, more energy efficient cold chain and more.

Today's guest is Manik Suri, CEO and Founder of Therma. The cold chain is a massive part of modern society that doesn't get much attention. It stores a huge amount of goods, allowing us to keep food fresh, medicines effective, and current internet infrastructure. Yes, even data centers are part of the cold chain.Therma is turning commercial and industrial refrigeration systems into virtual power plants and helping to reduce emissions across three vectors: food waste, energy, and refrigerant gases. Manik took a lean startup approach to Therma with a thesis that he could monitor refrigeration to help companies avoid spoilage. That idea led him to uncover related customer problems such as controlling temperature, optimizing power consumption, and detecting potential equipment failures that could lead to leaks. Collectively these problems add up to nearly 10% of global emissions. As refrigeration and cooling spread across a warming world, this footprint is expected to grow. The story of unchecked cooling is one of the self-reinforcing negative feedback loops where warmer weather requires more cooling, which uses more power and leaks more refrigerant, causing warmer weather… on repeat.In this episode, Cody Simms chatted with Manik to hear the details of our collective refrigeration and cold chain problem, how his solution at Therma came to be, and what's next for this side of the cooling world. In this episode, we cover: [2:19] An overview of the cold chain[5:10] Regulations and rules from a temperature management standpoint[8:09] Major sources of waste and inefficiency in the cooling sector and cold chain[10:02] Role of refrigerant leaks during a machine's lifespan and end-of-life[14:49] An overview of the cold chain emissions footprint[18:07] Origins of Therma and the company's solution[23:12] Manik's journey and how he landed in refrigeration[27:36] Therma's hardware, software, and analytical platform[31:00] The company's subscription model and how it came to be during the pandemic[33:16] How Therma predicts manufacturing timeframes and balances risk[35:06] The company's early adopters at a national level and plans to scale[38:13] Job opportunitiesGet connected:Cody Simms Twitter / LinkedInManik Suri Twitter / LinkedInTherma Twitter / LinkedInMCJ Podcast / Collective*You can also reach us via email at info@mcjcollective.com, where we encourage you to share your feedback on episodes and suggestions for future topics or guests.Episode recorded on November 21, 2022.

It's something we reiterate every episode: we'll achieve net zero by adopting the new energy transition technologies that are developed every day around the world. Often we focus on the main areas: the solar tech, the ways the industry is maximizing wind power or the developments being made in sustainable aviation fuel. This week however, David turns his attention to an often over-looked but important piece in the energy transition puzzle: how to improve efficiency and create total sustainability in food and medicinal storage. 40% of our total food production is thrown away before it reaches plates. That's a US$1.6 trillion a year problem, and it's caused primarily by poor food storage. Refrigerated storage is costly and uses a huge amount of energy. With the entire world in an energy crisis, the strain on the US power grid has caused states to put caps on the amount of energy being used in businesses and in homes. Restaurants are particularly liable to waste due to food safety laws which demand that food must be thrown away if improperly stored. That can be caused by anything from faulty equipment to food being stored in a place below the required temperature threshold. With energy prices skyrocketing, businesses need a way to improve efficiencies in storage. How can this be solved? We investigate the ways that the industry can save energy and reduce emissions with founder and CEO of Therma, Manik Suri. Therma is a tech startup that builds safety and sustainability tools to eliminate food waste, improve energy efficiency and reduce refrigerant emissions — protecting consumers and combating climate change. It's not just refrigeration – Therma also focuses on cooling in a broader sense. Malik claims that improving ventilation is another way of creating efficiencies in energy use and saving individuals money. The world is paying the price for the inefficiencies across the entire supply chain, so streamlining and reducing energy use has a knock-on effect, and ultimately could lead to significant positive impacts for the world in combatting climate change.The Interchange podcast is brought to you by Schneider Electric.

Manik Suri, Founder and CEO of Therma, on Smart Refrigeration:“As we move into a world where we have more electrification and move off fossil fuels, we're going to need a lot more utility infrastructure, so utilities are looking for ways to create extra capacity…We're starting to think of refrigeration as a battery; we've kept that battery at one hundred percent charge for the last hundred years - now we're starting to explore temporarily discharging that battery, and creating a network of distributed batteries.”Therma's mission is to help protect our food, health, and planet. They build sustainability tools to improve refrigeration efficiency, which eliminates food waste and reduces emissions. Their technology is used by McDonald's, Starbucks, Wyndham hotels and many others. Their smart refrigeration monitoring protects food inventory and saves energy, and it's overhauling the “refrigeration cold chain” by altering the way refrigerators operate around the world.

This week's guest is Manik Suri, founder and CEO of Therma. Manik studied Political Science as an undergrad at Harvard University and then earned his Master's in international Relations at Cambridge University in England. After school, he ended up working in Finance at an investment firm and then pursued law school. During law school, he worked at an internship with the economic policy team in the first Obama Administration. There, he met the Deputy CTO of the US, Beth Noveck, and was introduced to the idea that tech, law and government intersected so moved into tech for good.He went to The Governance Lab (The Gov Lab) at NYU where tech for government was in action. Hear about the exciting project that they did with the United Nations.Manik co-founded Therma when was Inspired to move into private sector and entrepreneurship after seeing the opportunity to build and scale a company while also having a positive social impact. Therma is working to improve the cold chain which is the part of the supply chain that moves food and also medical supplies (like vaccines!). It is smart refrigeration technology for that seeks to reduce food waste, energy waste and refrigerant leakage. Note from Rabiah (Host): Manik has had a brilliant career as a student and post-college and in founding a company with the embedded value of social impact really resonated with me a lot. It was exciting to hear about his work in government and I did not know about Beth Noveck before but want to know more now! I often ask myself how I can contribute more, even on the podcast sometimes, and really found what Manik has done and is doing very invigorating.

Most people don't realize it, but businesses in several industries waste massive amounts of food and money because of inefficient refrigeration practices. On top of that, poor refrigeration practices waste energy and add to our carbon footprint. Fortunately, tech startup Therma is working to address both of those problems at the same time. Therma has already made a small dent in making the refrigeration supply chain more efficient and is on its way toward doing so much more. Therma founder and CEO Manik Suri joined Roland Siebelink on the Midstage Startup Momentum Podcast this week to talk about how Therma helps customers and the environment at the same time, among other topics pertinent to his startup. How Therma is able to sell to both large corporations and small businesses. Why Therma chose to target growth on two different fronts. The benefits of selling customers on both ROI potential and sustainability. Why Therma prefers to partner with investors who care about what they care about. The benefits that angel investors can bring to startups beyond money. The massive potential that exists with mission-driven entrepreneurship.

In this episode I interview Manik Suri. Manik is the founder and CEO of Therma. Therma is focused on combatting climate change and minimizing food and energy waste with their cutting edge technology in temperature monitoring and analytics.  They are used by thousands of businesses globally and recently just raised a $10 million dollar round of funding to fuel their growth.  In this episode, Manik sheds light on why companies who focus on Social Good and growth are gaining more market share, but my favorite part of this interview is just the ability to chat with a brilliant founder, in the trenches building a disruptive company, and all of the things that go into executing a big vision… There are a lot of great takeaways from this interview, and I am excited for you to listen.

Therma is a technology startup that builds hardware and software tools that protect our planet. They work with leading organizations in the food, restaurant, healthcare, hospitality, and manufacturing industries; and their customers include government agencies, major corporations, small businesses, and nonprofits.Manik Suri talks to Brett about how he became the CEO of Therma.

Led by CEO Manik Suri, Therma is deploying next-generation IoT devices to reduce product waste and decrease energy waste throughout the global cold chain. To learn more about Therma visit their website. Manik noted the company's product offering saying, "Therma stands for Temperature Humidity Equipment Remote Monitoring Application. Our technology is an Internet of Things device that reduces the waste of energy, product, and refrigerants across the refrigeration supply chain." Manik highlighted the scale of the refrigeration industry saying, "The refrigeration industry is interesting but probably not something that the layman has given much thought to, and frankly, I hadn't given it much thought either until a few years ago. The industry has been around for about 150 years and hasn't seen as much innovation as you might think. The “refrigeration cold chain” is used to describe all of the refrigeration assets that help keep perishable products cold across the life cycle. There are a couple hundred million units of refrigeration assets in the commercial and industrial sectors alone. There is more than $1 trillion worth of inventory moved through these refrigeration assets each year from fruits and vegetables to pharmaceuticals and blood plasma. The scale of the cold chain is growing at approximately 11% a year with growth fueled by the developing world. There are estimates that China's current cold chain is only 20% of its full potential while the estimate is closer to 10% in Africa."
