Sijbrand Tieleman

CEO at Proba

Speaker

Sijbrand Tieleman is the CEO and Co-Founder of Proba, a Scope 3 certification platform purpose-built for the agri-food supply chain. Proba helps food companies quantify, verify, and claim trusted emission reductions where it matters most, starting with fertilizers, which represent 40–50% of cradle-to-farmgate emissions in many crop systems.

Under Sijbrand's leadership, Proba has developed proprietary MRV methodologies and software that enable agri-food supply chains to turn fertilizer emission reductions into certified, reportable Scope 3 results. The platform serves a growing portfolio of partners across grains, coffee, potatoes, and other commodities, working with fertilizer producers, cooperatives, agri-traders, and food multinationals alike.

A serial entrepreneur with a background in scaling technology ventures, Sijbrand brings commercial pragmatism to a space often dominated by complexity.
