“I believe that Climate Change is an existential issue for us; solving for climate change will require measuring and quantifying our emissions across sectors and geographies.  Research has shown that Real Assets contribute to almost 40% of global carbon emissions.  Chris Bennett and his team at EVORA have built an exceptional business that helps participants in the Real Asset sector quantify their carbon footprint.  I am excited to be a part of EVORA to help clients tackle the climate challenge.   The culture, dedication to the cause yet pragmatic approach makes EVORA unique; I am thrilled to join this immensely talented group at such an exciting time.”
