Let me share a crazy idea with you. 🛰🤔

What if we extract the surplus of CO2 which is causing us so much trouble and we turned it

into Carbon?

You know the material, which is so popular among race car fanatics.

Now, let’s not stop there. What if we would take this carbon and turn it into a smartphone?

It sounds great, right? Even too good to be true and certainly crazy.

Now would you believe me if I told you that this is not Sci-Fi but that a company in Berlin,

Germany is actually working on turning this into reality.

Promoted as the “lightest smartphone” ever, featured by major publications like Chip,

Android Authority, ZEIT Online and T-Online, the CARBON 1 MK II is designed to impress.

But much more importantly to us we wanted to figure out if Firas is authentic in his

approach.. And after the interview we have all the reasons to believe that Firas’ vision comes

from an honest place.

He does care about the impact of his product and therefore goes against all odds, working

on what many claim to be impossible, launching a successful Smartphone business amongst

the giants like Apple, Samsung and HUAWEI.

Not only did he already launch, he also presented the final product in our show.

So if you want to be inspired by an entrepreneur who not only dreamed about being useful in

the area of sustainability but who has overcome so many obstacles to make his vision a

reality..

Then this episode is for you.
