This is such an unmet need, and a real issue close to many people (my family included). Will be watching this closely, and hope this can be rolled out in New Zealand sometime soon.

Let's go! New Zealand needs to invest in this opportunity - we have the intellectual capital, we need the infrastructure. @drayeshaverrall - is this on the radar?
Yes! 🎉🎉 We love a government investing in technology that means a more sustainable future built with biology! Maybe our own government here in New Zealand government can follow suit? 👀forbes.com/sites/johncumbers…

Let's go bioeconomy! Exciting opportunities ahead
Some great people have been pushing this bioeconomy policy boulder uphill for over a decade. Some great news out today from the Biden White House with a new bioeconomy executive order. forbes.com/sites/johncumbers…

Great article @tsungxu. Biomaterials are the future!

New article! The last golden age of new materials was so long ago, we rarely think about materials as a driver of technological progress. I make the case that this is changing. tsungxu.com/materials-paradi…

For using clean, cheap electrons to build the future, I think electrochemistry and synbio will be huge. I knew a little about electrochem startups and trends, but almost nothing about synbio. So I immersed myself at the @BuiltWithBio conference last week. Some takeaways:
