Who we are

Built on the belief that coexistence is a synonym for progress.

My name is Anirudh Atrish. After serving in a senior leadership role as an Assistant General Manager, I stepped away from my corporate career for six months to fully dedicate myself to this mission.

Today, I am proud to present Betterplace to the world. In March, I rejoined the fast-paced corporate world — strategically supporting this initiative to ensure Betterplace has the resources to thrive and scale.

We champion a future powered by sustainability — where clean energy drives progress, and there is room for everyone: nature, animals and humanity.
