ESG Decoded is the podcast powered by Global Affairs Associates, a ClimeCo company to share relevant updates related to business innovation and sustainability in a manner that is clear and actionable.
In this episode, Kaitlyn Allen talks with Ryan Calvert, Head of ESG Strategy & Implementation at Kairos Aerospace. Kairos builds instruments that pull data from the physical world and refine it into data products. The company’s hardware and software, attached to Cessna airplanes, focuses on the largest methane leaks in oil and gas operations.  Ryan has had an exciting career in the ESG space with focus in social enterprise, venture capital, and due diligence/governance.  Previously, Ryan was a researcher for NBC Sports and had a financial operations role with the New York Yankees baseball team.  He is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, and holds two degrees from Stanford University.
Listen as Kaitlyn and Ryan discuss the origins of Kairos Aerospace and the uniqueness of its technology.  They highlight the importance of the quantification of methane emissions and fixing leaks that the human eye cannot see. Because methane is one of the most potent greenhouse gases, it’s critical to reduce methane in order to reach net zero. We also learn how Cessna airplanes play a key role in Kairos’ work. Kaitlyn also engages Ryan on his personal adventures.
