We wish to overcome the generally short-termism and risk-averse nature of investors and show that it pays substantially to support inventors with ideas that are decades ahead of their time to give us sustainably the abundant energy, food and housing that we so urgently require.
Step-change aeroponic (soilless) smart agriculture system for staple food crop production - Anticipated 18 times higher yields, 85+% water saving, effectively organic, climate change resilient, self-harvesting, etc. Potentially can solve 'world hunger'.
Plasma deep bore drilling drills 30 times faster in hard rock than conventional thus enabler for geothermal energy to give CO2 neutral, 24/7 energy almost anywhere in the world. Also for disposal of HL nuclear waste, mining and tunnelling applications.
Offsite manufacture of modular (SoLoft) and flat-pack (Flatpax) housing to provide quality, affordable, adaptable, sustainable and climate change resilient homes that can be installed within 24 hours on almost any terrain to overcome the acute shortages.
Keynote of Michael Ruggier at Rothamsted Open Innovation Forum on GameChanging Innovation, 20 Jan 2017:
He focusses on Disruptive Innovation and demonstrates that it pays handsomely. He covers why we need it, helps you to go beyond conventional thinking, how to implement it within your organisation, gives a number of specific examples where he turned ideas out with the organisation when with Shell into reality and ends with his latest systems to address the world's greatest challenges namely food, energy and housing. Questions cover disruptive innovation and how to implement it into ones own organisation.
