Background

About Stenver Jerkku

I am a serial tech entrepreneur and the Founder & CEO of Soldera, where we're transforming renewable energy finance with applied AI. We streamline processes, reduce administrative burdens, and significantly boost producer revenues, accelerating the adoption of clean energy. Soldera isn't just speeding up the transition—we're powering it as a Virtual Power Station. Throughout my career, I've raised over €25M in venture capital, had startup exits and am passionate about building transformative, scalable solutions at the intersection of AI, sustainability, and finance. Previously, I co-founded Solid World, a company revolutionizing climate finance by creating transparent commodity markets. By providing liquidity for climate assets and enabling efficient pricing and trading through blockchain technology, Solid World is changing how environmental assets are traded. I also co-founded eAgronom, where I architected AI-driven platforms that managed millions of acres of farmland across Central and Eastern Europe, leading to significant venture capital investment. Our solutions empowered farmers with advanced tools for sustainable agriculture. Earlier in my career, I was part of the early team at Glia leading a software engineering team, contributing to its growth from MVP to post-Series B and witnessing its rise to unicorn status, now valued over €1B. I hold advanced degrees in Computer Science and Economics from the University of Tartu. With expertise in AI, climate tech, and energy markets, I'm committed to leveraging innovative technologies to create global impact.
