Tony assisted Green Campus in first winning the deal with Martin to start running tests with his bio-resin. Composite manufacture has a very steep learning curve and Tony patiently took Green Campus on and supported the development of testing with the bio-materials. Without Tony's experience and support Green Campus could not have won that opportunity. Tony was working with Green Marine at the time, another market leader of composite manufacturing with whom we were partnered who sadly went bust. Then Tony introduced the project to Simon Rogers at Rogers Advanced Composites who helped move the project forwards again. We hope to work with Tony again in the future once we have our Automated Bio-composite Manufacture System further down the line.
