♻️ Imagine ‘A Waste Free World’ with us at Cicada x Tech23! ♻️ Join us at Cicada x Tech23 as we ask how deep tech innovations can solve overconsumption with sustainable production and waste and shift us to a circular economy. Imagine a world where waste is non-existent, with nature-derived materials, infinite recycling, and advanced technologies transforming our approach to resources. Transitioning from a "take, make, waste" model to a circular economy. Meet the startups reducing waste and rethinking resources across industries including energy, fashion, and agriculture, and helping to create ‘A Waste Free World’: ⭐ Tina Funder, Founder of Alt.Leather is turning waste and regenerative plants into 100% biobased leather textiles for use in fashion, footwear, furniture and automotive. ⭐Chris W., Co-Founder and Director of EM ENERGY, has pioneered a technology to extract hydrogen from organic materials destined for landfill without the need for heat or electricity. This enables on-demand green hydrogen production to decarbonise industries and cities. ⭐ Adel Rezaeimotlagh is the R&D Project Manager of PlasmaLeap Technologies, which is developing zero-emission reactors to build accessible, sustainable technology for fuel and chemical production globally. ⭐Bryn Sobott, Co-Founder of Adept Aqua, has developed a solution that uses renewable energy to oxygenate water. This solution can be deployed across millions of square kilometres of river systems to protect and regenerate waterways for humans, animals, and plants. ⭐ Lucie Semenec, CEO and Co-Founder of Newera Bio marry nature with synthetic biology to design a full spectrum of colour synthesis, creating a sustainable dye without compromising performance to be applied across textiles, food, packaging and cosmetics.    Don’t miss out on this opportunity to be in the room at Cicada x Tech23. 🗓️  Date & Time: Wednesday, 7th August 2024 📍  Where: Doltone House, Jones Bay Wharf 🎟️  Secure your place now and be part of Australia’s premier deep tech festival.  https://lnkd.in/geeeK8ND #CxT23 #deeptech #innovation #wastefree #sustainability #tech #circulareconomy #techstartups #techinnovation #techfestival

Very excited to share that after working alongside the founders of Adept Aqua for 7 months now, I’ve recently decided to take the leap and join the team more formally. Adept Aqua is an emerging DeepTech/ClimateTech startup which is revolutionising water treatment - both for the protection and regeneration of the natural environment and industrial applications such as the aquaculture industry. They have also recently been selected by Cicada Innovations to be one of the #Tech23 When the Ops role was offered, I realised I had both Ikigai * and the perfect team fit to take the leap. You know what they say... "never say I'll never join a startup again!". The website and technology is deliberately vague - we are awaiting priority dates - but it will deliver key benefits, such as: - Catalysing decarbonisation of the global aquaculture industry (lowering energy use and carbon footprint of oxygenation/aeration leading to increased profitability). - Boosting the health and resilience of fragile river, waterway, and lake ecosystems, and the critically endangered native species that live within them.   I'm still working with my portfolio of startups, board roles and still investing. I'm looking forward to the many more exciting announcements Adept will make over the coming months. *Ikigai = Reason for Being What I love = Food & helping technical founders bring their products to market.  What I'm good at = getting shit done What the world needs = low carbon future What I can be paid for = Massive TAM in 3 distinct markets.
