Grain

About Us

Grain was founded in September 2022, emerging from Schneider Electric's 'Dare to Disrupt Challenge' – a competition organized to find the next one-billion-dollar business. To move from idea to implementation, Grain was incubated at Greentown Labs and became an independent founder-owned company, securing its first funding from SE Ventures. Grain has since become a member of Microsoft Founders Hub and selected to participate in the Cleantech Open Northeast acceleration program. In May 2024, Grain Ecosystem was honored with the "Most Likely to be Next Unicorn" award at the Startup Boston Community Awards.

Grain simplifies profitable decarbonization projects, focusing on biogenic/organic waste facilities and regenerative farming. We integrate waste-to-value solutions like biochar into supply chains, utilizing a digital-first platform. This approach unlocks finance to streamline carbon certification, validate business economics, and foster collaboration.

We manage risks, seize new opportunities, and align with global climate goals, empowering producers to execute projects efficiently.

Our offices are located in Boston, New York, and Montreal but our team is spread across the globe. We collaborate with producers, investors, and manufacturers worldwide, ensuring international reach and impact.
