THE BIOMIMICRY INSTITUTE

"A Sustainable Solution for the Chemical Industry (Inspired by Nature)"

What if we could make chemical production sustainable, inspired by nature? With this mindset, startup Anodyne Chemistries has created a new bioelectric manufacturing process to produce chemicals more efficiently and sustainably than the leading thermochemical process.

The Ray of Hope Accelerator (formerly Prize) supports nature-inspired solutions addressing the world's biggest environmental and sustainability challenges.
Anodyne Chemistries was selected as a finalist for the 2022 Ray of Hope Prize.

I got to tell the finalist’s stories in colour and motion here, to be used by the startups, the institute, news outlets and educational institutions as part of their curriculum.
It was a joy to learn about the incredible scope of biomimicry and the variety of clever innovations coming out of learning from nature.
