Rainstick emerges as the pioneer, simulating lightning's effects to cultivate larger, faster, and more sustainable food growth. Serving as an alternative or complement to chemical treatments, Rainstick fundamentally alters the economic dynamics of food production without requiring a shift in farming methodologies. The Rainstick founders are Darryl Lyons, a proud Maiawali man and third-generation farmer, and Mic Black, an engineer and scientist from North Queensland.

Seaweedery was born out of two friends’ passion for sustainability and great Australian seafood- looking to improve the food supply chain by rescuing nutritional elements that are otherwise discarded as waste. Natalie Kalinova; Innovator and Business Strategist and Elke Travers; Chef and Future Foods Visionary founded Seaweedery, aiming to reflect the way a chef works in the kitchen by finding creative ways to utilise all the ingredients. Their overall aim is to take less from the ocean while creating more value.
