• Saving the Planet Without the Bullshit: The Truth About Climate and Capital
  Based on his hit book, Razzouk dismantles the individual-guilt narratives around climate action, proving that recycling, veganism, and carbon offsetting are dwarf-sized efforts compared to the one structural necessity: replacing fossil fuels with solar, wind, and storage. He shares counter-intuitive statistics and positive, systemic strategies to re-engineer business operations for a genuinely sustainable future.

• Navigating the New Supply-Chain and Energy Paradigm: Geopolitics vs. Profit

  The global energy transition is no longer just an environmental mandate; it is a geostrategic battleground. Razzouk explains how national interests, technological decoupling, and trade blockades are reshaping supply chains. He equips chief supply chain officers and C-suite leaders to become "geopolitical strategists" who can secure energy assets, manage critical bottlenecks, and thrive amid volatility.

• The Era of Energy Super Abundance: Scaling Renewables in a Fragmented World

  For the first time in human history, we are moving away from an energy-constrained existence. Razzouk shares first-hand, operational insights from building and financing multi-gigawatt clean energy portfolios across India, Southeast Asia, and Japan. He maps out the economic and political forces driving the clean energy revolution, explaining how companies can capitalize on the massive, exponential decline in solar and battery costs.

speaker Bio: 

Assaad Razzouk is a prominent Lebanese-British clean energy entrepreneur, author, podcaster, and investor with over twenty years of frontline experience pioneering renewable energy and environmental markets. He serves as the Chief Executive Officer of Gurīn Energy, a premier pan-Asia renewable energy developer headquartered in Singapore, leading a team across Southeast Asia, North Asia, and India to construct innovative solar, wind, and utility-scale battery storage assets. Previously, he was the Chairman and CEO of Sindicatum Renewable Energy, establishing himself as a pioneer who has financed and operated multi-million-dollar clean energy infrastructures in emerging markets.

Razzouk’s strategic authority is anchored in both financial markets and deep academic rigor. He began his career as an investment banker at Nomura International in London and started at Price Waterhouse in New York City. He graduated summa cum laude from Syracuse University, earned his MBA from Columbia University, and was awarded a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) Honoris Causa by TERI University in India. A prolific commentator with a massive global following on social media, he is the host of The Angry Clean Energy Guy podcast, a Board member of ClientEarth, and an Advisory Board member of Eco-Business.

Summary (Core Conviction):

Razzouk’s core conviction is that power and economic success in the 21st century are determined entirely by the speed at which organizations and countries can scale up renewables and battery storage. He rejects the traditional view of ESG compliance checkmarks, urging instead a radical focus on the actual, physical decarbonization of operations. On stage, he delivers a refreshingly honest, sharp, and highly analytical presentation, using his extensive experience as a project developer to separate realistic energy strategy from corporate buzzwords. For corporate summits, investor forums, and energy conferences seeking a realistic, APAC-focused clean energy pioneer, he remains the gold standard.
