About Next Frontier.🌍

Hi, and welcome to Next Frontier.🌍

My name is Thomas, creator and host of Next Frontier, impact entrepreneur, and devotee to accelerating the transition to sustainable supply chains.

I created Next Frontier to have a separate and independent media from my other supply chain businesses (Responsibly and Ofload), with the purpose of creating a safe and independent learning environment for spreading the best practices and insights to power our transition to sustainable supply chains.

Why supply chains? Because they represent 93% of the avg. company's footprint, and are absolutely key to ensure a sustainable future. They're also hard, fragmented and intransparent, and will require work for the decades to come.

To accelerate this transition, we need to stand on the shoulders of giants. Learn from each others mistakes and replicate the successes. There's an unfortunate consequence of the greenwashing and reputational risks that spans sustainability, which results in people 'holding their cards close' or being abstract in their shares. It also an incredibly heavy topic making it frankly quite boring at times. With Next Frontier.🌍 we'll try to change that. Make it more digestable, while learning from the best.

About Me

🛒 I currently lead Responsibly, which I founded in 2021 to accelerate adoption of sustainable procurement. Responsibly leverages cutting edge ai technology to democratize procurements access to supplier sustainability data, and empower buyers to build a more sustainable supply chain. Responsibly has raised ~$4.5m in growth capital, and is growing fast across buyers in Europe and US 🚀

🚚 I co-founded Ofload in 2019 to reduce the carbon footprint of one of the worlds highest emitting industries: trucking, by making the industry less wasteful. Ofload is based out of Australia, Sydney, and has raised >$80m in growth capital, and is well underway to achieve its vision 🚀🚀

👨‍💼 At BCG, I specialised in digital, growth and venture build. In 2017 I won the first ever global BCG hackathon - I led a project to reduce non performing debt by democratizing access to debt advisory for the millions of people that increasingly are overwhelmed by growing debt. I also worked with multiple companies pro-bono, incl. The Ocean Cleanup Project. 🌊
