About
Andes is a climate tech startup headquartered in Alameda, California that uses beneficial soil microorganisms applied with crop seeds (corn, wheat) to accelerate conversion of atmospheric CO2 into stable soil inorganic carbonate minerals on US Midwest farmland. The company co-developed the first ISO 14064 Microbial Carbon Mineralization (MCM) methodology with EcoEngineers, has partnered with Gold Standard, and has raised $38M in venture funding from investors including Leaps by Bayer, Yamaha Motor Ventures, and Voyager VC.
