Karin Burns

Karin Burns

Karin L. Burns has spent two decades building and reshaping organizations at the intersection of energy, finance, and technology. Her career blends operating leadership with substantial investment and corporate finance work across energy and climate markets, and it has consistently produced measurable results.

She began in global finance, holding positions at JPMorgan Chase, GE Equity, i2i Capital, Gulf Capital, and Ambata Capital Partners. There she led investment banking, private equity, and advisory transactions across both mature industries and early-stage climate technologies, including a $1.1 billion cross-border sell-side deal and the sale of an electric vehicle company to a Fortune 500 buyer.

That grounding in capital led her into operating roles. As CEO of Build It Green, she returned the organization to profitability for four straight years, doubled revenue, and cut turnover in half. She later expanded her scope at Franklin Energy, running programs across six states before moving into national corporate development and M&A. As Executive Director of Code REDD, she led forest-conservation strategy and launched the Stand for Trees campaign, a platform that brought voluntary carbon credits to the public.

Today Karin leads one of California's largest community choice clean-energy providers, serving nearly 1 million customer accounts across the San Diego region. Under her leadership, annual revenue has climbed from under $350 million to more than $1 billion, and she has championed a plan to reach 100% clean and renewable power by 2035.

Karin earned a Master in Public Administration from Harvard's Kennedy School and an MBA in International Finance from Edinburgh Business School, and holds a BA from Duke University. She lives in California with her husband and two sons.

Pascal van Knijff

Pascal B. van Knijff is an entrepreneur, technology strategist, and international keynote speaker with more than 30 years of experience at the intersection of digital innovation, blockchain, artificial intelligence, institutional finance, and sustainability.

As Founder and Managing Partner of KARBNZ Global, Pascal is leading the development of a next-generation Natural Capital Platform that integrates blockchain, artificial intelligence, satellite intelligence, digital Measurement, Reporting & Verification (MRV), biomass, biochar, and institutional climate finance to transform natural assets into transparent, verifiable, and investable infrastructure.

Through KARBNZ Global and its experienced Brazilian operating partners, Pascal is helping develop one of the world's most ambitious integrated natural capital platforms, combining ecological restoration, sustainable forestry, biomass, biochar, digital MRV, and institutional finance into a scalable investment model. His work provides first-hand insight into how blockchain, AI, and trusted data can enable transparency, continuous verification, and long-term stewardship across complex environmental assets at a scale relevant to institutional investors, governments, and global climate initiatives.

His work reflects a broader transformation in global climate finance; from standalone carbon credit projects to diversified natural capital platforms that integrate ecological restoration with sustainable timber, biomass, biochar, biodiversity, and high-integrity environmental markets. This vision was recently featured by CarbonCredits.com in "Beyond Carbon Credits: How KARBNZ Global Is Building a Natural Capital Platform Around Forests, Biomass, and Biochar."

Pascal has long advocated for applying blockchain beyond digital assets, positioning it as the trust infrastructure for Real World Assets (RWAs). His work explores how blockchain, AI, autonomous agents, satellite intelligence, and digital twins can create continuous verification, transparent governance, and institutional-grade investment frameworks for climate infrastructure and sustainable finance.

An experienced international speaker, Pascal has presented at leading blockchain and innovation conferences, including BLOCKCHANCE Europe, and EU's inaugural Blockchain Convergence, sharing insights on blockchain adoption, tokenization, digital transformation, Web3, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies.

Today, Pascal is recognized for bridging technology with practical implementation, translating complex concepts into actionable strategies for governments, institutional investors, enterprises, and innovators. His presentations challenge audiences to think beyond tokenization and explore how AI and blockchain together can build the trusted digital infrastructure that underpins the next generation of Real World Assets and the global natural capital economy.

Dale Hobbie

Dale Hobbie

Dale Hobbie is a multi-patented inventor, mission-critical systems architect, and the founder of Quantum HPC Infrastructure, LLC. With more than 35 years of experience in computational analytics and engineering, he has dedicated his career to solving complex challenges in Power, cooling, and compute reliability. His work focuses on autonomous class-compute infrastructure designed to operate independently while supporting AI, HPC, and quantum workloads. He brings a disciplined and methodical approach to engineering, shaped by decades of hands-on experience in environments where continuity and stability are essential.

Known professionally as D. James Hobbie, he is the inventor of the Cleanewable Hybrid platform, protected under U.S. Patents 11,233,405 B1 and 12,184,075 B1, with multiple continuation-in-part applications and registered trademarks. These innovations extend to carbon-integrated thermals, RTF materials processes, modular enclosure systems, and distributed micro-utility architectures. Hobbie developed this platform to integrate onsite multi-source power generation, advanced thermal loop control, and autonomous operational logic into a unified, repeatable system. His patented work provides a licensable technical foundation intended to support resilient compute environments under variable and demanding conditions.

James Hobbie is the architect of the Operation Quantum Marathon Corridor, a multi-state autonomous compute spine extending approximately 1,500 miles. This corridor was engineered to support federal, commercial, defense, and scientific computing requirements through onsite generation aggregators up to 500 MW+ and interoperable micro-utility frameworks. Hobbie designed the corridor to integrate fiber adjacency, sovereign routing logic, and unified mission continuity architecture across independent regions. The initiative responds to the limitations of grid-dependent infrastructure while maintaining scalability for future compute needs.

As the founder and managing director of Quantum HPC Infrastructure, LLC, Dale James Hobbie leads systems-level engineering governance, multidisciplinary project oversight, and corridor-scale development strategy. Hobbie oversees patent strategy, site modeling, infrastructure adjacency planning, and high-density thermal integration. Under his direction, the organization operates through a Master Project Management Office structure developed in financial partnership with Peter Georgiopoulos and supported by operations advisor Leo Vrondissis. This structure integrates expertise across energy systems, carbon integration, digital infrastructure, and mission-critical engineering while maintaining consistent execution standards.

Before founding QHPC, Hobbie spent over three decades as an independent consultant addressing high-risk, mission-critical reliability challenges across commercial, industrial, government, and defense-aligned environments. He became known as the engineer whom organizations relied upon when systems failed in ways others could not diagnose. His work included stabilizing mission-critical environments, identifying hidden reliability and team-based faults, redesigning obsolete systems, and implementing advanced Power-to-the-Nth pathways. These experiences directly shaped the autonomous class architectures he later codified into patent form.

Dale Hobbie continues to guide the expansion of autonomous-class infrastructure across the United States and allied regions. His engineering philosophy emphasizes systems intuition, long-range thinking, and a clear understanding of interconnected electrical, thermal, mechanical, and digital domains. Through ongoing work in sovereign compute strategy, carbon-integrated thermals, and next-generation enclosure systems, he remains focused on building infrastructure that operates independently and supports uninterrupted computing in future scenarios. He maintains a steady commitment to designing systems and teams that endure, adapt, and remain effective over time.
