Vladimir Chuchkin

For the past decade, I have been building and managing energy and tech ventures across Europe and Asia, addressing the challenges of energy transition and sustainability. Before diving into entrepreneurship, I led investments and business development across EMEA and Asia-Pacific for major corporate and private tech and energy companies.

I have always held commercial roles, driving sales and developing new markets. I have been fortunate to experience the best of three worlds: digital solutions, physical infrastructure, and startups.

As a founder and CEO, I participated in the world’s leading venture-building program and accelerators, raised venture capital, and secured multinational enterprise clients from Australia to the UK. My teammates and I started from scratch and experienced the ups and downs familiar to anyone who has ever joined the venture race.

When I reflect on my career, three accomplishments stand out that I am particularly proud of:

3 startups

As a founder and CEO, I launched and led sustainability and energy ventures in Singapore and the UK.

These startups joined top-tier accelerators such as Entrepreneur First, Plug-and-Play, and Pier71, and successfully raised venture capital from private and institutional investors.

5 countries

As small startups without major backing, we secured deals with some of the world’s largest enterprise clients across multiple markets, thanks to our strong B2B marketing and sales frameworks and strategy.

$10 billion

Throughout my career, I originated and managed a diverse portfolio of energy and infrastructure projects across Asia and MENA.

This included selling multi-billion-dollar nuclear power plants to governments, launching independent energy businesses and investing in waste processing technologies.
