Brent Schulkin

Brent Schulkin is a creative entrepreneur and climate activist who builds businesses and technology to connect people’s financial choices with social and environmental change. His work spans climate technology, fintech, data, community building, and consumer advocacy, guided by the belief that people should be able to express their values through how they spend money.

Schulkin created Carrotmob, a positive alternative to boycotts in which businesses commit to specific actions and consumers reward them with purchases. The movement inspired campaigns around the world, alongside technology ventures that enabled participation through payments. He later led The Spring, an app that rewarded users with cash back while participating restaurants supported local community projects. As CEO of MoneyVoice, he developed a consumer app and business software designed to help companies gather meaningful feedback and understand people’s views.

Across these ventures, Schulkin explores how financial tools and data can influence business incentives and encourage collective climate action. His current creative projects include Hijack Capitalism and Trick or Treat.
