Bart Raedts co-founded Orgaworld, which processed 900,000 tons of organic waste and wastewater a year across the Netherlands and Canada, before selling it to Shanks in 2012, and he has since focused on backing biobased and fermentation companies that turn waste into higher-value chemicals rather than just energy. He has stayed with some of these companies for the long haul, joining every funding round for ChainCraft since 2012, which points to a pattern of sticking with sectors and founders over many years rather than moving between industries.
