The Climate Cycle

Commercializing Climate Chemistry with RXN Hub


Listen Later

Morgan Lehtinen and Sebastian Alamillo are the co-founders of RXN Hub, a new facility to help ChemTech ventures scale from lab to market.

RXN Hub is tackling one of the biggest and least-addressed challenges in climate tech: how to scale chemical technologies from the lab to commercial scale.

Whether you're working on carbon capture, energy storage, or green industrial processes, there’s often nowhere to go once your research is too big for a university but too early for a full-scale plant.

Morgan and Sebastian have both lived that experience as chemtech founders, and now they’re building the infrastructure they wish they had to make scaling up faster, easier, and more cost effective.

In our conversation, you’ll learn about:

  • Why chemistry is at the core of so many climate solutions
  • What’s driving a renewed interest in chemistry tech
  • Crossing the capital and infrastructure valleys of death
  • How RXN Hub is cutting costs and complexity for first-of-a-kind projects
  • Why international ventures are looking to Canada for their first pilots
  • The value of founder experience in building better infrastructure
