Marion Verles is my guest on episode 34 of Inside Ideas with Marc Buckley.
Marion is the CEO of SustainCERT, a mission-driven company that offers simple, tech-driven solutions for verifying impacts in climate protection, supply chains, and investment products.
Marion brings to SustainCERT her deep knowledge of carbon markets and her passion for pioneering new approaches to financing climate and development interventions. Prior to launching SustainCERT, Marion officiated as CEO of the Gold Standard Foundation, a standard that works to ensure every dollar of climate and development funding goes as far as it can. She also founded Nexus-Carbon for Development, a cooperative of development organisations looking to scale their climate mitigation programs through results-based finance.
Before joining the climate and development arena, Marion worked at Barclays Bank as a corporate development analyst. She holds a Master’s degree in European Business and a Master’s degree in Public Administration.
