As the Head of Circular Economy at Gobi Partners, a Pan-Asian venture capital firm with US$1.2 billion in assets under management, Carlo leads investments in innovative companies that champion sustainability.

Carlo was recognized with the Development Award and the Bayanihan Award from the President of the Philippines, as well as a Top 30 under 30 innovator by numerous publications, including Forbes. Carlo is currently the Co-Chair of the Global Shapers Climate Action Steering Committee at the World Economic Forum, and a Circular Economy Pioneer at the Ellen MacArthur Foundation.
