Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPrageeth Jayathissa is a sustainability leader with a decade of interdisciplinary experience blending engineering, data science and applied research to decarbonise energy systems. As GM Sustainability at Vector Limited he translates advanced building- and energy-research—from his ETH Zurich PhD on adaptive photovoltaic envelopes to machine-learning driven comfort studies at NUS—into operational climate strategies. He has led hands-on R&D (from thermo-electric devices to adaptive facades), built and managed technical teams, and applied design-thinking in healthcare data science to improve outcomes. Comfortable moving between lab, field and boardroom, he combines rigorous academic training with pragmatic delivery and a long-term mission to retire in 2050 having materially reduced emissions.
