James Stewart, ALWAYS CARBON
Always Carbon turns any plant biomass from waste costs, into new revenues, by pyrolysing plants into useful charcoal called biochar, profitably funded by generating valuable permanent carbon removal credits.
Always Carbon is a company on a mission to remove carbon from the atmosphere by delivering Biochar projects. Through strategic partnership with biomass owners, Always Carbon transforms various types of waste plants into biochat, a solution that generates revenue streams for their partners. This process of transformation is known as pyrolysis - heating biomass at high temperatures and low oxygen levels, resulting in the creation of biochar. This technology could unlock the tangible solution towards a more sustainable and forward thinking future.
Darius Okle, INTERLATE

Linden Roper, JTG Consultants Pty Ltd Australia
JTG Consultants Pty Ltd, Australia (Exclusive Licensee of eHPCC™), directed by Linden Roper, is a family-owned (parent) company intended for developing, commercialising, and exploiting intellectual property (IP) rights to eHPCC™
Their technology, the ‘Eccentric High-Pressure Centrifugal Communuition’ or eHPCC™, is an innovation set to reshape the landscape of mineral processing. The mineral liberation for this tech is achieved by autogenously comminuting ore within a high-pressure zone. This results in fine mineral particles while promoting energy efficiency. This technology could unlock energy efficiency compared to vigorous conventional mills. That being said, the eHPCC™ stands poised to redefine mineral comminution.
Mark Holton, Systemiser
Systemiser provides software and services to help mining companies map key system processes and develop intelligent twin mine models that automate shift execution plans that maximise long-term value.
Digital transformation has enabled real-time monitoring and control of mining operations. However, planning must also become more agile and adaptable to factors such as price fluctuations, rising costs, geological surprises, and the impacts of digitization, electrification, and ESG. Systemiser can help by mapping out systems and processes and using the knowledge of planners and schedulers to build intelligent mine twins. These intelligent twins can quickly and autonomously re-optimize long-term and short-term schedules, unlocking value. Systemiser is a leading player in the innovation community, bridging the gap between traditional budget planning and the future of mining with a dynamic plan.
