Change Catalyst I Connected Leader I Material Scientist I VP of Research I I Help Companies Develop Impact-Driven Products Through Technology Innovation, Sustainable Materials and Packaging and Strategic Partnerships
📍 Localized Excellence: The Transformative Power of Local Production Attending two impactful local climate events recently was invigorating, highlighting remarkable progress in locally sourced, grown, and implemented innovations. 🚀 NY Climate Tech Pitch Night: Witnessed the ingenuity of five startups reshaping the climate tech landscape. From Still Bright's patented hydrometallurgical process for domestic copper production at ambient conditions to Metal Light's portable metal-air power generator, enabling instant mobile charging for off-grid energy access, the range of innovations was awe-inspiring. A personal favorite was Generation Conscious's low-energy, zero-waste laundry solutions using detergent sheet refill stations, championing accessible and ecological hygiene products, starting with universities. 🌿 From Field to Form: Hemp: Explored the potential of US-grown hemp-based materials for building in a captivating conversation among a hemp plant geneticist, hemp product manufacturer, and HempLime builder. Insights flowed on creating value by constructing carbon-sequestering, healthier, and more affordable buildings, all while fostering a zero-waste economy. 📊 Data Insights: Larry Smart from Cornell University AgriTech presented compelling data, showcasing a 2-4-fold yield increase with improved hemp cultivars. While applauding progress, he emphasized the need for more incentives and credits to promote hemp growth in the US. 💥 Transformative Practices: Tommy Gibbons from Hempitecture and Jennifer Martin from HempStone shared experiences bringing this supply chain to local communities. They highlighted the potential for hemp-based products to transcend mere substitution models, evolving into transformative solutions that seamlessly blend handcrafted practices with scalable impact. 🌍 Empowering Local Communities: These events demonstrate the transformative power of local production in driving innovation accessibility, empowering regional supply chains and communities, and shaping a more resilient, inclusive, and eco-conscious future. #climateinnovation #localproduction #hemp #startups #cleantech #sustainabledevelopment

Leaving the fossile-driven economy behind is quite a journey. Our contribution: #BIOECONOMY #DEEPDIVEs We learned to apply solutions bilaterally and catalyze scaling ✅ But transition towards biogenic feedstock means huge dynamic pressure for specific value chains which cannot be sorted by individual stakeholder alone. In a collaborative format we focus on suitable value chains to identify upcoming challenges, specifically address them and close innovation gaps by selecting the best startups. THE WHY: We all know that closing the food gap is the core challenge for agrifood systems - but its a mega trend difficult to address proactively and individually. So whats behind this initiative and whats our contribution? To foster an economy based on biogenic feedstock (and circular processes) we act #bilaterally, on #ecosystem level and now #ValueChains. - In a bilateral setting we established #VentureClienting activities to catalyze economically viable cooperation between innovative Startups and scaled industry (Aquapurna is an example). - Fostering #Ecosystems consortia are key like in projects like Smarterra. The missing link has always been the connection between a topline setting and enabling change by specifically applying change. We are more than happy to get support by the fantastic team of Rentenbank with funding by BMEL (Bundesministerium für Ernährung und Landwirtschaft). Lukas Hoyos Alexander Engelke Caspar von Alvensleben Dr. Christian Bock Nikola Steinbock Stay tuned! And many thanks for all the support to develop this format https://lnkd.in/e94uicHr RootCamp - A SpinLab Company
