Disrupting Foundation Industries: Material Evolution

Concrete is the most used man-made material on earth and with the cement industry contributes 8% of co2 emissions due to the sheer volume used. Liz Gilligan is co-founder and CEO of Material Evolution, a disruptive force in the concrete sector producing a low carbon replacement for cement that can reduce (and soon strip out) co2.

The conversation covers what it takes to disrupt a long-established industry, how machine learning combines with waste recycling to create direct replacements for cement in many applications – and enjoy the story of their evolution to date.

In a pilot plant phase right now, you can learn about their financing round ambitions and the next steps for scaling and commercialising this valuable new material. With 95% of the material used coming from waste, it’s a great story of what can be achieved with a rethink on core materials.
