I. Company introduction:

Yama is solving the biggest threat humanity ever faced: Climate Change with the ambitious goal to remove a billion tons of CO2 by 2050.

Yama’s purpose is to scale-up, industrialize and launch on the market the lowest energy consumption scalable Direct Air Capture technology.

DAC is a necessary technology to keep the Earth’s temperature below 1.5°C, but today’s processes would consume unsustainable quantities of energy, land or water if deployed at the required scale. We are solving that.

The technology is based on a novel integration of two CO2 desorption technologies, which allows Yama to undercut the thermodynamic and kinetic limits of existing processes.

Yama is a spin out from Deep Science Ventures, and is funded by the Grantham Foundation for the Protection of the Environment, which was been incorporated in May 2023. Yama a Delaware company with the CTO (Valentin Fougerit) and CEO (Aurélie Gonzalez) based in Paris, France.

Yama fundraise several millions from top US and EU investors.
