Biography

Julia Daviy Berezovska (also known as Julia Daviy) is an innovator, clean tech entrepreneur, and environmental economics researcher, recognized for her pioneering roles in renewable energy, sustainable 3D-printed fashion, and climate-focused technologies. 

Julia attended a specialized physics-mathematics gymnasium in Ukraine and was accepted into a remote program at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology while in the 8th grade. 

She pursued energy engineering before graduating summa cum laude in Environmental Science from the National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy. Daviy also earned a summa cum laude bachelor's degree in International Economics with a finance focus and a master’s in the same field from the Institute of International Relations, Taras Shevchenko National University of Ukraine, where she trained as an economist and diplomat.

She later joined the LEAD (Leadership in Sustainability) program in London and got a postgraduate diploma in design thinking and innovation from the Darden School of Business at the University of Virginia. Currently, she is completing an MBA at UC Berkeley Haas, focusing on investments, sustainability, and innovations.

Daviy co-founded and co-managed Ibcentre, a leading platform in emerging markets for renewable energy and clean technology advancement. Through the Solar Academy, she supported thousands of new entrants into the energy market, organized major expos across Europe like CISOLAR, and managed early renewable energy engineerring  projects in Ukraine. Additionally, through contracts with European governments, she and her team facilitated investments and significant deals that strengthened the clean tech industry.

Her advocacy was instrumental in establishing Ukraine’s feed-in tariff for householders, solar energy market liberalization, positioning Ukraine as one of the top emerging solar markets. She also co-founded the Ukrainian Renewable Energy Association (APEU) and organized the European Energy Security Forum, which brought together EU and broader European policymakers and industry leaders in Brussels to advance the clean energy transition. She is also a co-founder of Institute of Green Economics of Ukraine (2013).

In 2023, Daviy launched the Sustainable Innovation Challenge, aiming to create 365 concepts for sustainable innovation within a year. She has since developed over 330 impactful concepts, driven by commitment to solving the real-world challenges of the 21st century. 

A recognized pioneer in sustainable 3D-printed clothing, Daviy was among the first to create planet-first garments using large-format industrial 3D printers and experimenting with biodegradable and recyclable flexible materials. She created the wearable 3D-printed clothing that were the first of their kind available commercially in the United States. 

As co-founder and CEO of New Age Lab, she developed some of the first 3D printers for flexible textiles/clothing.

Her work also extended to developing portable solar energy solutions, creating advanced, high-capacity solar chargers for use in both consumer and industrial applications.

She later launched Imageneria, a company focused on the low-emission production of consumer goods through as she called it "digital delivery" including distributed advanced 3D printing, reducing CO2 emissions by up to 90%. 

In 2024, Daviy co-founded the Sustainable Innovation Council, a California-based platform and NGO dedicated to connecting climate tech innovators with impact investors to accelerate sustainable policies and foster an ecosystem for sustainable solutions. She also serves as a Venture Partner at UC Berkeley’s Climate Solutions Fund.

Julia Daviy has authored publications on environmental economics, green economy, and sustainable design, and reports from the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. 

Julia's work has earned awards, including the Edison Award for Sustainable Consumer Tech, a Guinness World Record, and the Green Product Award recognition. She is a sought-after speaker at global conferences, sharing insights on sustainability and innovation at events such as NATO’s Women in Tech forum, UC Berkeley panels, and the large industrial events such as European Pellets Forum and New York based FASHINNOVATION.
