Meet Tomas

Tomas Svoboda is a serial entrepreneur who gets things done. With a warrior mindset that drives him to conquer both business and extreme personal challenges, Tomas is on a mission to make sustainability the new standard in global industries, proving that integrity and profitability can go hand in hand.

The real adventure kicked off when Tomas took a job in Vietnam, managing 1,000 people in a country he’d never set foot in, facing a language and culture he didn’t understand. It was a massive leap into the unknown, but Tomas was ready. There, he bootstrapped a company from his apartment, soon pushing it to a multi-seven figure exit, and kept building from there.

It was there Tomas stepped into his role of builder/creator, as he went on to found several other ventures. When he couldn’t find coffee that met his standards, he resolved to create his own. That same drive drove him to take on a role as Sales and Performance Manager at a waste management company. He and his team developed a sustainability model so effective that they ended presenting it at the United Nations. This opened his eyes to what’s possible in sustainability, which has fueled his work
ever since.

From Humble Beginnings

Tomas Svoboda grew up in a small town in the Czech Republic, with a population of about 20,000 people. It was the kind of town most people never left. From a young age, Tomas knew he wanted to experience more - more opportunities, more challenges. Even as a child, he was frustrated with the “status quo”. As a young adult, he visited USA, to do seasonal service work. There, his worldview began to expand.

The Journey Begins

Sustainova

Now, Tomas is focused on sharing his startup with the world—Sustainova—a platform that cuts through the BS of greenwashing and gives businesses the real, actionable tools they need to make sustainability profitable. Sustainova isn’t just about making companies look good on paper; it’s about turning sustainability into a real business asset. As an unbiased Strategic Business Sustainability Partner, Sustainova offers consulting, analysis, and connections that help businesses tackle carbon management, ESG challenges, and sustainability issues head-on. The platform serves as a strategic partner, assembling tailored teams of experts, partners, and tools to guide companies in making the right decisions at every step.

Where It’s Going

As someone who is committed to forward momentum, Tomas is laser focused on making sustainability the new standard in business. He leverages his warrior mindset to push the boundaries of what’s possible as a global society.

Outside of work, Tomas brings the same drive to his never-ending series of personal challenges, whether that’s swimming in frozen fjords or running marathons in the Rockies. With over 5,000 miles worth of medals from more than 10 countries, he is constantly pushing his limits.

  • Tomášem jsem měl to štětí jednat v UNIFER na projektu propagace a správě projektu Realitydílny.cz. Vždy byl k dispozici, při jednání nebyl pouze nečinný posluchač, ale snažil se hledat cesty pro zlepšení a zjednodušení.
