About me
Johannes Wesemann is an entrepreneur and investor known for his work at the intersection of technology, law, and environmental activism. As the former managing director of Uber Austria, he played a key role in expanding the company's operations in the region. Later, he shifted his focus toward climate protection, founding AllRise, a hybrid NGO-commercial entity that leverages legal action to hold governments and corporations accountable for environmental destruction. Through initiatives like lawsuits against illegal deforestation in the Amazon and legal challenges against land sealing in Austria, Wesemann uses climate litigation to protect biodiversity and enforce environmental laws. He has also launched AllRise Incubator, a for-profit venture developing products and services that support climate lawsuits, including a whistleblower platform to gather evidence for legal cases. His work aims to create lasting systemic change by merging legal strategies with technological solutions.
