Ravi is the Co-founder and CEO of Atmos Financial, a financial technology company that offers the most climate-positive bank accounts on the planet. Atmos accounts have funded over 12,000 kW of rooftop solar across the US through retail and business customers, allocating 100% of deposits to clean energy projects.
Ravi has been fighting climate change since August 2000 when he had a moment of clarity that his mission in life was to help the world transition off of fossil fuels. Ultimately, he came to the conclusion that finance was the “Archimedes Lever” needed to facilitate change. Since 2013, he has been connecting climatetech startups with corporate and project capital providers, from small angel investments to billion-dollar private equity transactions.
Through Atmos Financial, Mikkelsen is working towards catalyzing a global movement for a greener, more resilient future since 2020. Outside of Atmos, Ravi enjoys spending time with his wife and two year old out in nature.
