I interviewed Paula Gould, CMO Greenqloud from Iceland @GLAZED Conference. Greenqloud are in the Cloud Computing Space. They power the cloud on renewable energy to help reduce the IT industry’s carbon emissions which has become larger than the automobile & airline industries combine. They tap into the Icelandic electrical grid which is the only 100% renewable energy grid in the world! Their market is global, biggest customer base is US, the Netherlands & Iceland. She spoke about the Iceland community & art is part of the culture. They have tech startups which are extraordinarily creative. She spoke about investment in Iceland for tech startups & unfortunately the community doesn’t reinvest in itself. Startup Iceland are trying to change that. She spoke about a female Icelandic venture capitalist who is investing in a lot of startups.
