Mr. Manish Mishra

Mr. Manish Mishra handles the India business and South Asia VC/ PE practice for SBI Holdings INC JP (Formerly known as Softbank Investment Holdings INC JP), particularly looking for innovation and incubations. As a part of his VC profile, he closely follows the trends of incubations across verticals, and is personally very interested in green process development, biotechnology and start-ups in that vertical. We were absolutely grateful to have an opportunity to converse with him regarding the project. He introduced us to a completely different dimension of carbon credits. He explained about the significance, the current attesting bodies and national as well as international regulatory procedures. He inspired us to pursue the project and find out if the expression is increased would we be cutting down on any process steps or utilising less of resources usually involved. We found this to be a very exciting angle. With all the inspiration from the meet about carbon credits and sustainability and green process technology, our first modest step was that we recycled all our plastic waste generated in the lab. We have planned to consciously incorporate calculation of the carbon credits. Trading of carbon credits was another fascinating domain that captured our attention.
