In this first ever in-person episode of the REM Podcast, host Tom Essex speaks to Rodolfo Bigolin, CEO of Innovo Group - a true serial entrepreneur who’s built multiple infrastructure companies across renewables, EV charging and data centres.

He explains why his team took construction in-house, how they managed to deliver 11 solar plants at once, and why retention and culture have been key to scaling sustainably.

This episode covers:

• What different European markets taught him, and where the next opportunities are
• Why they acquired an engineering firm to control risk and delivery quality
• How they scaled while maintaining almost zero staff turnover
• Why fast-growth playbooks don’t work in long-term infrastructure
• How they’re applying lessons from solar to adjacent markets like EV and data

If you want to understand what it really takes to build energy infrastructure that lasts, this episode is packed with real-world insight from a team that’s doing it at scale.
