Arjun has helped clients get into these companies:
With years of hands-on entrepreneurial experience, I bring a deep understanding of what it takes to build, scale, and sustain a business. As the Co-founder & CCO of S2S Dynamics, a circular economy startup tackling e-waste through tech-driven solutions, I have led commercial strategy, partnerships, and market positioning to drive growth and impact. Prior to this, I co-founded and scaled a renewable energy company to million-dollar revenues, overseeing marketing, strategic alliances, and business development across multiple markets. My journey has given me firsthand exposure to the challenges of fundraising, go-to-market strategy, and sustainable business models—insights I now share as an adjunct professor mentoring startups and executives at IE University. Whether you're an aspiring founder refining your idea, a startup looking to scale, or a corporate innovator driving intrapreneurship, I can help you navigate the complexities of entrepreneurship with practical guidance and actionable strategies.

Hiring Manager
The complicated supply chain, lack of clear data, limited material know-how and inconsistent waste recycling processes are impacting efforts to meet sustainability target goals and makes it challenging to track and comply with mandatory regulations. In Summary: No Data. No transparency. No Accountability. Electronic waste (e-waste) is the fastest growing waste stream (3X) and it is expected to reach 75 Million metric tons by 2030 with only 17.4% of that known to be properly documented & recycled. Regulatory changes underscore the urgent need for transparency and automation in the industry. We are building a comprehensive ecosystem that streamlines the effective end-of-life management process for all the stakeholders (such as recyclers, brands/OEM) where none currently exists. Through our data-driven incentivized B2B platform solutions powered by AI, we aim to enhance visibility, boost recycling rates and minimize overhead costs across the electronics supply chain.
