It's exciting to see alternative fuel innovation, long in the making, finally receiving the recognition it deserves from the industry. This transformation highlights a significant and exciting transformation in the industry. For other sectors, like specialty chemicals where Lite-1 is focused, we're seeing industry movement. We believe that similar level of acceptance will be achieved in less than a decade. The journey of alternative fuel serves as a fantastic case study, showcasing how the world is moving towards sustainable and bio-based materials. Taking it one step further; we believe microorganisms are truly the factories of the future. Early steps are crucial across all sectors (government, industry, academia, private investment) for us to reach this stage, and accelerating the growth of clean solutions is key to transforming industries. Let's keep pushing the boundaries! Boston Consulting Group (BCG) #CLEANTECH #CIRCULARECONOMY

At LITE-1, We are working to create a more sustainable future in most complex supply chains like fashion. While much attention is given to the visible waste generated, we often overlook the hazardous and toxic chemicals involved in processes, such as dyes and colorants. We have recognized that there needs to be a change in the way we collectively create and consume. Our team uses biotechnology innovation to create colourants from microbes that can replace toxic dyes currently used in fashion. Join us in protecting our planet one action at a time. Talking about a problem is not enough to create the change our world needs.
