The Rise of Mr. Latheesh V K: Innovator and Entrepreneur in Climate Tech

Mr. Latheesh V K’s journey from a Mechanical Engineering graduate to a trailblazing entrepreneur in the climate tech industry is a story of innovation, resilience, and visionary leadership. Born and educated in India, he graduated from the prestigious National Institute of Technology, Jaipur, where he laid the foundation for his future career. His early professional life began at ITC India Ltd, where he gained valuable experience and insight into the intricacies of project management, particularly in the highly demanding field of EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) projects for oil fields.

With over 16 years of experience under his belt, he decided to channel his expertise and entrepreneurial spirit into his venture. In 2011, he founded LA Homes, a company specializing in Prefabricated (Prefab) structures and Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEB). Through LA Homes, he successfully executed over 100 prefab projects across India, establishing the company as a leader in its niche market. The success of LA Homes was a testament to his ability to identify market needs and deliver innovative solutions, reinforcing his reputation as a forward-thinking entrepreneur.

Building on the success of LA Homes, he expanded his business portfolio by founding Sacris Pvt. Ltd, a licensed government contracting company. Sacris Pvt. Ltd allowed him to diversify his business operations and establish a stronger foothold in the construction and infrastructure sector.

His ventures were not just business successes but also contributed significantly to India’s infrastructure development.

However, his ambitions extended beyond traditional business ventures. In 2022, recognizing the urgent need for action on climate change, he pivoted towards the emerging field of climate tech.

He obtained proficiency certificates in Greenhouse Gas (GHG) accounting from the GHG Management Institute in Seattle, USA, and the Chicago Climate Registry. Armed with this new knowledge and a deep commitment to sustainability, he founded LO Carbon Solutions, a climate tech startup with a mission to combat climate change through innovative technologies and business models.

LO Carbon Solutions quickly became a leader in the climate tech space, with diverse business verticals that reflect his holistic approach to environmental sustainability. One of the flagship initiatives of LO Carbon Solutions is the development of the LO CARBON machine, a groundbreaking technology designed to decarbonize internal combustion (IC) engines. This innovation represents a significant step forward in reducing carbon emissions from one of the most prevalent sources of pollution.

In addition to decarbonizing IC engines, LO Carbon Solutions has developed a Software as a Service (SaaS) platform for carbon footprint auditing, serving major clients in Europe. The company’s focus on regenerative agriculture has led to projects that not only reduce carbon emissions but also generate carbon credits, providing farmers with additional revenue streams and contributing to global carbon reduction efforts.

His vision for a greener future also extends to urban areas, with the development and execution of “Liquid Trees” based on microalgae, designed to enhance air quality in cities across India, the Middle East, and Africa. Moreover, his innovative spirit has led to the creation of

“CarbonCrowd,” a platform for developing and trading NFTs based on carbon reduction projects, and “Chakra,” a cryptocurrency based on carbon credits.

In recognition of his outstanding contributions to the climate tech industry, he was honored with the Indian Achievers Award for Best Promising Startup of 2024. This award is a testament to his visionary leadership and commitment to making a positive impact on the world through sustainable business practices.

His journey is an inspiring example of how innovation, dedication, and a commitment to sustainability can drive success and create lasting change in the world. His work with LO Carbon Solutions not only addresses some of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time but also sets a new standard for what is possible at the intersection of technology and sustainability.
