This year's Biotech YES is first in a number of ways. First of all we have got a record
number of teams which is great and second of all I think they have been very imaginative
in the kind of problems they are trying to solve in science.
The product we have been looking at is a delivery technology that would go through quantified
layer of skin to deliver different peptides and different molecules. I would say that
this morning has been quite nerve wracking. To go up last before lunch when you have seen
two really good presentations already is very difficult.
Our company is called DeeNature and we are selling oxalate free tea. We just did our
pitch and I think it went ok. We were the first ones up so we didn't know what to expect.
What is better is that your property can meet the competition, how you come up with the
8% market penetration, based on the metrics of your company.
As I mentioned we can bet on the growth of the decaffeinated tea market so it is something
that is in addition to every day tea. People have it instead of their tea every day.
It has been great. It was fantastic. It has been particularly high quality and good fun
and I hope, no matter what has happened, that you have all enjoyed this and that you have
learnt a lot.
I have to say we did disagree with that. It was not plain sailing on either of the streets.
Usually there is a head and shoulders winner so there are no head and shoulders winners
but there are winners who we have agreed on and the winners are, in the environmental
section, its Mara Mor.
And in the the biotech section, its Microbe Solutions.
