In this episode, host Dawn Tiura sits down with Gautam Pasari, Founder and CEO of True ValueHub, to explore how his 20+ years in manufacturing and supply chain led him to build a platform that gives procurement teams unprecedented visibility into cost, risk, and carbon — all in one place.

Gautam shares how True ValueHub won SIG's inaugural Startup Pitch Competition in 2024, generating over 150 inbound leads in 30 days, and how the company has nearly doubled in size every four to six months since. The conversation also touches on navigating today's tariff volatility, the collapse of the traditional sourcing cycle, and why carbon is quickly becoming a bottom-line issue for manufacturers worldwide.
