NitroFix is a startup that aims to revolutionize the ammonia production industry by producing emission-free ammonia. Ammonia is a versatile compound used in various industries, with global annual production reaching around 200 MT. Unfortunately, the conventional method of ammonia production, known as the Haber-Bosch process, emits approximately 2.5 tons of CO2 for every ton of ammonia produced. NitroFix, on the other hand, utilizes an innovative electrochemical process that converts water and air into ammonia with zero carbon emissions and at a low cost. By doing so, NitroFix aims to significantly reduce the environmental impact of ammonia production while still meeting the growing demand for this essential compound.

About me

With over two decades of experience in the printing industry, I have successfully managed Research and Development (R&D) groups specializing in 2D and 3D printing technologies. My journey began with startup companies like Landa labs, where I honed my skills and quickly transitioned to leading R&D efforts in larger corporations like Stratasys. This diverse experience has given me a comprehensive understanding of the industry's intricacies and technological advancements.

Aside from R&D, I have also excelled in managing Customer Success teams, bridging the gap between customers' needs and innovative solutions. This dual role has enhanced my ability to communicate effectively in multiple languages, facilitating seamless interactions with a global clientele.

Driven by a passion for making a meaningful impact on humanity and addressing pressing climate change challenges, I made a pivotal decision to transition my career trajectory. Leveraging my expertise and entrepreneurial spirit, I co-founded NitroFix alongside two visionary colleagues. Our collective vision culminated in successfully securing a seed round, laying the foundation for NitroFix's groundbreaking journey.

At NitroFix, we are dedicated to revolutionizing the ammonia production landscape with sustainable and affordable solutions. Our innovative approach and a deep-rooted commitment to environmental stewardship propels us towards a future where sustainability and technological advancement converge.
