Hexa is the first startup studio to purchase Direct Air Capture carbon credits marking a pioneering step in climate leadership within the startup ecosystem. The credits are sourced from Sirona Technologies, with Agendi advising on procurement strategy and designing their carbon credit portfolio. By partnering with visionary companies like Sirona Technologies, Hexa accelerates the scale-up of permanent carbon removal infrastructure. It also enables Hexa to take care of their residual emissions on a science-based approach, complementary to a portfolio of nature-based solutions provided by Agendi.
This partnership reflects a growing shift of the tech sector towards real climate impact through permanent carbon removal.
Quentin Nickmans, Co-Founder of Hexa says “At Hexa, we’re building the next generation of tech companies and we believe that innovation shouldn’t come at the expense of the planet. We’re committed to align with science-based climate neutralization. We’re proud to back climate entrepreneurs like Sirona Technologies, whose Direct Air Capture credits meet the highest standards of permanent and verifiable carbon removal.”
Arnaud Brohé, Founder of Agendi: “This partnership reflects the next chapter of climate leadership: a move towards permanent, science-backed removals. At Agendi, we worked closely with Hexa to structure a procurement strategy grounded in durability, verifiability, and measurability. Direct Air Capture is increasingly becoming a key strategic component for companies with net zero ambitions.”
Thoralf Gutierrez, Co-Founder of Sirona Technologies “At Sirona, we demonstrated that we can be a reliable partner for companies willing to neutralize their residual emissions. We have an operational pilot plant, launching our commercial plant this year and deploy DAC with a credible scalability pathway.
