#ImperialBE #BreakingBarriers Still time to sign #ImperialBE #BreakingBarriers

Still time to sign up for #ImperialBE, a new entrepreneurial leadership series, delivered by our friends @imperialenterpriselab.

For founders of black and mixed-black heritage, the entrepreneurial journey is an uphill battle littered with barriers and hurdles.

❓ Did you know that…?
Extend VC reported that between 2009 and 2019 only 0.24% of venture capital raised in the UK went to black founders. It gets worse. Only 0.02% went to black female founders.

These events introduce role models, develop entrepreneurial skills and create a network across Imperial and beyond, showcasing the success of our black community.

As we kick off Sustainability Week at Imperial, me As we kick off Sustainability Week at Imperial, meet the makers on a mission to find sustainable alternatives for the future of fashion, turning waste potato plants to sustainable textiles!

David Prior Hope, Pablo DurΓ‘n MillΓ‘n (pictured here in the Hackspace BioLab) Idan Gal-Shohet, Hazel Gonda, and Premal Gadhia from Design Engineering (MEng), make up Team Fibe! Fibe has been developed as part of the team's final year Enterprise Roll-Out (ERO) module and they are interested in developing novel fabrics for eco-conscious fashion.

Now regulars at the Hackspace, with the BioLab becoming like their second home 😎, the team have been busy conducting a feasibility study in fibre extraction from the stem of the potato πŸ₯” known as potato haulm. Normally this would be discarded as waste, but Fibe has identified it as potential sustainable raw material for new fabrics with the hope that is has the potential to be transformed into clothing πŸ™Œ. Stay tuned for Fibe!
