How I Serve
I search for emerging companies, technologies, disruptive technologies, innovations, start-ups and up-starts. I’ll look to match potential problems… e.g. “plastic pollution” to solutions… e.g. 3D Printer for recycled plastic waste…for potential venture capitalists, angel investors, and online funders. I’ll also highlight a variety of topics including funding success stories, the environment, housing, medical, artificial intelligence, science, aging populations, disabled populations, social entrepreneurs, philanthropy, and topical news. I’m always searching for great people innovating, inventing, and doing, great things.
I don’t endorse. Only disseminate.

FROM THE SEA TO THE STREETS
At Bureo,
we make skateboards from recycled fishing nets. Our recycling program in
Chile, 'Net Positiva', provides fishing net collection points to keep
plastic fishing nets out of our oceans. Preventing harmful materials
from entering the ocean, our programs protect wildlife and supporting
local fishing communities through financial incentives.
OUR MISSION
We are on a
mission to find innovative solutions to prevent ocean plastics. Our
team shares a passion for surfing and the health of the environment. We
are dedicated to making a difference and inspiring others to join us in
the movement to protect our oceans.
OUR RECYCLING PROCESS
Once
collected, our nets are washed and prepared for a mechanical recycling
process. Within this process, they are shredded and fed through a
'pelletizer', where they are melted and cut into small recycled pellets.
These pellets are then injected into steel molds to form our products.
