As President of the Manasota Chapter of Community Equity Partners, I'm proud to announce that Community Equity Partners is collaborating with the University of Tennessee and HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology on a National Science Foundation Engines grant program — and the award was announced today.
Community Equity Partners will be building a regional ecosystem around recyclable industrial fibers — a circular bioeconomy — serving three high-impact vertical markets:
♻️ Single-use plastics
🏗️ Construction materials
🚗 Automotive parts
We've assembled an incredible roster of partners across each of these verticals, and over the coming months we'll be announcing new funding opportunities for companies operating in these spaces.
If you're building in the circular economy, sustainable materials, or advanced manufacturing — keep an eye on this program. There's real capital and real infrastructure coming behind it.
This effort was led by Eric Dobson, Managing Partner of Community Equity Partners. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/epbmqr3S
