Radin Rahimzadeh is an entrepreneur, investor, podcast host, and advocate whose work sits at the convergence of sustainable technology, equitable innovation, and global policy. Rooted in California and engaged across the world, she is deeply committed to ensuring that the benefits of innovation reach those who have historically been left at the margins.
Radin is the founder and CEO of Fore Transit, a Forbes 30 Under 30-recognized company developing patented technologies that measurably reduce energy consumption and emissions in heavy-duty vehicle fleets. In 2022, Radin expanded on the company's mobile environmental IoT vision as a Pacific Council on International Policy AMPLIFY fellow. Prior to Fore Transit, Radin was a global consultant deploying Autonomous Vehicle and Smart City technologies with communities to meet United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Her work as an investor reflects the same values that animate her entrepreneurship. She seeks out founders driven by intentionality and conviction, particularly those working to expand access, reduce friction, and advance equity in entrenched industries. As an Iranian-American woman who has built at the frontier of technology and sustainability, Radin understands firsthand that progress requires not only bold ideas, but the full participation of voices that have too often been excluded from the table.
In parallel to building and investing in technology, Radin co-hosts Sprezzatura, a podcast dedicated to thoughtful, unhurried dialogue with the thinkers, founders, and creators shaping the cities and industries we inhabit. Each season of Sprezzatura is set in a different global city, following the life journeys of guests from diverse fields and backgrounds through conversations that illuminate the values, decisions, and defining moments behind their leadership.
