Racing taught me what works. Building and developing high performance racing yachts taught me why. Working closely with materials and structures, day after day, in real conditions, is where a different question started to surface. What happened to these yachts once their racing life was over. Where the carbon fibre and glass fibre actually went. Not an abstract concern. Something I was looking at with my own hands.

That question led to DANU, a patented circular composite technology built to perform without leaving damage behind. One product is a start. The real work is industrialisation, taking what's been proven in a yacht and scaling it. Wind turbine blades, automotive parts, train components, anywhere high performance composite materials are used and currently end up as waste. Reducing carbon footprints not in one application, but across an entire industry, and building a circular economy that actually works at scale, not just in a workshop.

Sometimes that means working with materials. Sometimes with a person, a skilled hand kept alive in a workshop instead of lost to retirement. Sometimes with a business finding its way through a stretch that looked impossible from the inside. Different work, same underlying act.

Different shapes, same act. The past taught me how. The future is where it scales.
