David Giuliani, a Northwest serial entrepreneur and inventor, champions applying entrepreneurial zeal to state-level climate change and carbon reduction. An electrical engineer, he designed early LED products and secured numerous medical patents. He co-invented and led Sonicare, selling it to Philips, and later co-invented Clarisonic, sold to L'Oreal. He received national Small Business Person and Entrepreneur of the Year awards.

Now, Giuliani applies his talents to societal improvement. With Howard Behar, he founded the Washington Business Alliance, which launched the Low Carbon Prosperity Institute to reframe climate issues as "win-win." This talk was given at a TEDx event. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx.
