Today, #StocExpo honours the vital role that the maritime industry plays in connecting the world. From transporting goods across continents to driving economic growth, the maritime sector is the backbone of global trade.  But it's not just about commerce—it's also about innovation and sustainability. As we navigate towards a greener future, the maritime industry is leading the charge in developing eco-friendly technologies that protect our oceans and reduce our environmental impact.  Let’s take a moment to recognise the dedication of the men and women who work tirelessly at sea and onshore to keep our global economy afloat. Here’s to a future of safe, sustainable, and prosperous voyages! 🌍⚓  Hashtags and add  #MaritimeDay #GlobalTrade #SustainableShipping #OceanStewardship #BlueEconomy 

Innovation Zero was a wonderful opportunity to take the lay of the Net Zero land across the UK. Amid a policy to and fro on the eve of local elections, we heard from entrepreneurs and SMEs working in every aspect of the low-carbon transition – although the UK is still heavily weighted towards Energy first and everything else later! Many SMEs were worried about being lost in the "valley of death" between incubation with the likes of Innovate UK and the first steps of scale and commercialization with VCs. Everyone wants consistency from policymakers in order to have the confidence to invest, and a key challenge for the next government will be enabling patient capital to find its way to high-potential companies that are not going to deliver huge investor returns in a short time frame. That said, we also learned more about initiatives like Bristol's City Leap initiative, which is already injecting nearly £500m into low-carbon infrastructure thanks to a public-private partnership with Ameresco. We think Bristol might be an interesting next stop for Netting Zeros when we get back on the road. More thoughts from SMEs like Spaceforge Aerosystems Pvt Ltd., FLIMAX Ltd, BX, OceanMind coming in the podcast very soon so please stay tuned!

Spot on and timely! Last week at #InnovationZero24 a very interesting panel was held on the role of #CorporateVentureCapital in #climatetech with Emerald Technology Ventures' Gina Domanig, ArcelorMittal's Irina Gorbounova and Aramco Ventures' Hans Middelthon, moderated by Aimava Ltd's Andrew Gaule. This is a topic of huge practical relevance, and the tech ecosystem needs to deepen its understanding of this type of partnership. As a private technology investor and advisor, I often get asked by tech entrepreneurs about the potential impact a corporate venture capital investor can have on their business, especially on strategy (“Does it box us in?”), commercials (“Will they be a customer? Will others in the same industry still want to buy from us?”), and exit options (“If they like the company, will they prevent a sale to others? If they don’t buy the company, does it send a mixed signal to the market?”). The answer on these is "it depends", I have seen both the good and the not so good side of it. I'd be curious to hear from others - what is your experience with Corporate VC in tech companies? #corporateventurecapital #venturecapital #growthequity

🌟 What an incredible experience at the Supply Chain & Logistics Association of Australia (SCLAA) Thought Leadership event on "Accelerating to Net Zero Logistics"! 🌟 Last week, I had the privilege of attending this fantastic event focused on sustainability and reducing the carbon footprint within the logistics industry. It was a day filled with insightful discussions, networking opportunities, and a glimpse into the future of greener logistics. Here's what made the event truly remarkable: 🔹 **Engaging Panel Discussion**: Industry experts shared their knowledge and innovative strategies to achieve net-zero emissions in logistics. Their perspectives on sustainability were both inspiring and actionable. I would like to thank Catherine Baxter, Lex Forsyth, and Toby Dawson for some wonderful insights into what Team Global Express, Janus Electric, and Tomorrow Together are doing to create a positive impact. 🔹 **Networking with Peers**: Connecting with like-minded professionals in the supply chain industry was invaluable. Sharing ideas and experiences with peers always sparks new collaborations and friendships. 🔹 **Hospitality**: A special thanks to SCLAA for the warm hospitality – the complimentary drink and delicious entrees added a delightful touch to the event. Events like these highlight the importance of coming together to tackle global challenges. I'm excited about the future of sustainable logistics and the role we can all play in making a difference. Massive thanks to Bestrane for sponsoring this event. If you missed this event, I highly encourage you to join us at future SCLAA events.
