From Rural Roots to Climate Tech Pioneer: Astrid Atkinson's Journey
From Rural Roots to Climate Tech Pioneer: Astrid Atkinson's JourneyUpdate: 2025-08-20
Description
Astrid Atkinson has a story that should inspire even the most jaded climate hawk. Growing up in rural Australia, she first got online when an internet-enabled train arrived in her village. She then decamped to the United States, dropped out of college to work for Google, and swung through a variety of high-impact roles at the search giant before founding her own company when the itch to do something about climate change got too strong to ignore. Now as the head of Camus, which provides digital solutions for the energy grid, she serves as a model of what it means to leave everything on the field when it comes to pursuing a climate career that can truly make a difference.
