Therma Founder & CEO Manik Suri: Investor Value is Rarely Correlated with Check Size

Most people don’t realize it, but businesses in several industries waste massive amounts of food and money because of inefficient refrigeration practices. On top of that, poor refrigeration practices waste energy and add to our carbon footprint. Fortunately, tech startup Therma is working to address both of those problems at the same time. Therma has already made a small dent in making the refrigeration supply chain more efficient and is on its way toward doing so much more. Therma founder and CEO Manik Suri joined Roland Siebelink on the Midstage Startup Momentum Podcast this week to talk about how Therma helps customers and the environment at the same time, among other topics pertinent to his startup. How Therma is able to sell to both large corporations and small businesses. Why Therma chose to target growth on two different fronts. The benefits of selling customers on both ROI potential and sustainability. Why Therma prefers to partner with investors who care about what they care about. The benefits that angel investors can bring to startups beyond money. The massive potential that exists with mission-driven entrepreneurship.
