Our Journey

January: Invited for the SHC

We began working on Algi in January, after receiving an invitation from the SHC to join their global competition. This image captures the first day we set up our algae farm at the Westmont Enterprise Hub. Algi was the concept that ignited our passion for exploring the potential of microalgae and its numerous benefits.

Feb-March: IP and qualifying for Semi-Finals

After collaborating with the University and the Westmont Enterprise Hub, we successfully registered Algi as a trademark in the UK and filed our patent. During this time, we also qualified for the semi-finals in Switzerland, which filled us with excitement. The image shown captures how our initial idea took shape.

April-May: Won the Semi-Finals

We won the semi-finals in Switzerland and forged valuable connections within the industry. It was thrilling to see people believe in our idea, and everything was finally coming together. Now, only one step remains the finals. We’re determined to win it!

June-July: Presented at HITT Amsterdam

Following the competition, SHC presented us with an incredible opportunity to showcase Algi at the Hospitality Think Tank (HITT). This experience proved to be immensely valuable, allowing us to connect with numerous industry leaders and meet head engineers from various hotel chains. These connections helped us further refine and enhance Algi.

August-September: Extension to Europe

Algi is currently focused on preparing for the finals and extending our trademark across Europe. We’ve been in discussions with investors and actively participating in the incubation process at the Westmont Enterprise Hub. Through these meetings, we’ve confirmed that Algi is still on the right path toward achieving something big.
