Terrascope, the global leader in carbon measurement and decarbonization, today announced the appointment of Felipe Daguila as the company’s new Chief Executive Officer. Daguila will assume this role on January 7, 2025. The announcement follows a number of major accomplishments achieved under former CEO Maya Hari.
In 2021, Daguila joined Terrascope as Chief Commercial Officer, bringing with him significant experience from Google and AWS. In the last four years, he has played a key role in expanding Terrascope’s footprint across Asia Pacific, Europe, and the United States. The appointment signals the company’s commitment to accelerating its mission of providing innovative solutions for carbon measurement and reduction in sectors such as land, nature, and the net-zero economy.
“As we enter our next phase of growth, we are committed to being the easiest platform to measure and reduce emissions. Our work is critical to addressing the climate crisis, and I am honored to lead Terrascope in this journey,” said Daguila.
Daguila’s connection to Terrascope’s vision is deeply personal. Growing up in Brazil as the grandson of a farmer, he developed an early appreciation for the environment and sustainable practices. This upbringing, combined with over 25 years of experience in the technology sector, has shaped his understanding of the challenges and opportunities in achieving global sustainability goals.
The leadership change comes after a period of impressive growth under Maya Hari, who has been CEO for the past two years. Hari played a significant role in consolidating Terrascope’s vision and expanding its global reach. Some of the notable achievements under her tenure include the successful entry of the company into the U.S. and Japanese markets, as well as a strategic partnership with Fujitsu focused on advancing sustainability initiatives. It has been a privilege to lead Terrascope and contribute to its vision of empowering enterprises to keep the planet habitable for all,” Hari said reflecting on her time at the helm.
Terrascope has emerged as a game-changer in the sustainability industry through its advanced technology and data, enabling organizations to monitor and lower their carbon footprint. To date, its platform has measured 462 million metric tons of CO₂ in its database—enough to equal the annual emissions of Australia. Furthermore, Terrascope developed a science-based, AI-driven decarbonization library comprising more than 20,000 initiatives that aim to help businesses meet their environmental ambitions.
Daguila’s promotion to CEO is part of a broader leadership reshuffle aimed at reinforcing the company’s growth strategy. Tatsuki Hirota, formerly General Manager for Japan, has been appointed to lead global sales, marketing, and customer success. This restructuring reflects Terrascope’s commitment to scaling its operations and enhancing its customer-centric approach.
As Terrascope enters this new chapter, it continues to concentrate on the high and urgent need to decarbonize. Daguila’s new leadership is assumed to bring forward the company’s vision of making carbon management accessible and actionable for organizations around the globe. In the face of this intensifying climate crisis, the company’s innovative solutions and strategic partnerships are now poised to play a vital role in meaningful progress toward global net-zero goals.
This also highlights the ambition of the company to lead by example in the sustainability space. Under Daguila, Terrascope aims to not only expand its market presence but also deepen its impact by empowering businesses with the tools and insights needed to make data-driven sustainability decisions.
The transition marks the beginning of a strategic growth era for Terrascope, as Daguila takes the helm to build upon the foundation that Hari has set in place, propelling the company into its next phase of success. With a strong leadership team, cutting-edge technology, and a steadfast commitment to its mission, Terrascope is well-positioned to continue its trajectory as a global leader in carbon measurement and decarbonization.
