The infinite plastics recycling startup everyone in VC is talking about
imagine if we didn’t need to make plastic from fossil fuels ever again, and we could just reuse all of the existing plastic infinitely. You might have thought that was an impossible ambition, but when two different VCs mention their excitement around Samsara Eco, and it's not even in their portfolio, it's hard not to pay attention.
Awards and titles

Nominated by: Keith Nugent, Australian National University

Innovation Australia’s 2022 Australian Hero and Winner of Renewables Award
The InnovationAus Awards celebrate excellence in the translation of Australian research into commercial and social impact outcomes. It highlights non-R&D innovation and the use of applied technology in building our industries of the future. From mining and agriculture to financial services, MedTech, cyber security and advanced manufacturing, the journalism focuses on the opportunities that align with Australia’s strategic priorities and connects government, institutional researchers, investors, entrepreneurs and the mainstream business community.
Samsara Eco took out two awards at the second annual InnovationAus Awards for Excellence Gala Dinner in November 2022. The Energy & Renewables category recognises ambition and innovation in the renewable energy, recycling and circular economy sector. The top award of the night, the Australian Hero Award, recognises the individual (or the leaders of a company) whose ambition and drive has resulted in a game-changing innovation, and a fabulous commercial or social impact success. This is like a Bradman award, for outstanding contribution to the nation.
