Michael English · Clonmel, Co. TipperaryBuilding a carbon-positive internet from Clonmel, Tipperary.
I'm Mike English. Founder and CTO of IMPT.io — a blockchain-powered hotel booking and carbon offset platform spanning 1.7 million hotels in 195 countries. Every stay offsets one tonne of CO₂ on-chain, paid from our commission.
Twenty years of code, one climate thesis.
Tesco · Dunnes Stores · Oracle. Now: IMPT.io and Bro AI, built from a small Irish town.
Carbon-positive travel.
Every booking offsets one tonne, recorded on-chain. Paid by IMPT, no extra cost to the traveller.
A grief companion.
Built in memory of our daughter Bronagh. Voice trained from 557 of her own videos. Anniversary launch 24 April 2026.
20,000+ eco brands.
Every purchase contributes to the offset pool — same on-chain accounting as IMPT travel.
Ireland's first quantum.
Delivering Ireland's first sovereign quantum access and quantum compute within twelve months. From Clonmel.
Climate action has to be the default, not the option.
For most of the last twenty years I built large-scale digital systems quietly behind other people's brands — at Tesco, Dunnes Stores, and Oracle. The systems that scaled best were the ones that hid the complicated machinery and let the user just do the thing. IMPT applies that same idea to climate: the offset is built in, the maths works, and the traveller doesn't have to opt in. They just travel.
