Background

About Salar Asoobar

As a Business Development Manager at Avantium, I leverage my expertise in sustainable business management and market research to provide R&D solutions for Direct Air Capture (DAC) & Carbon Capture companies. I focus on developing strategic account plans to ensure sustainable and profitable growth. I also conduct market analyses and negotiate contracts, focusing on our offerings in carbon capture and related technologies. Prior to joining Avantium, I worked as a market development professional at BASF for over four years, where I conducted comprehensive market research projects across multiple sectors, including chemical catalysts, biodegradable plastics, the automotive industry, and the energy industry. I achieved over €1 million in sales within untapped markets in the catalyst industry, demonstrating strong market penetration and strategic sales acumen. I also contributed to regional business units by driving sales and sustainability objectives through involvement in circular economy projects, including chemical recycling initiatives, launches of green products, and eco-innovative solutions. I hold a Master of Science degree in Global Sustainable Business Management from Northumbria University, and I am passionate about creating a positive impact through sustainable business practices.
