From invention to company
Some engineering ideas stay projects. A few insist on becoming organisations.

SPPE · Greenie Positive (external site, opens in a new tab) · Verdevia (external site, opens in a new tab)
Inventor of SPPE · Founder of Greenie Positive
The System for Preventing Petrol Evaporation started as an invention and became a venture. Greenie Positive, now based in Manchester, took it into international startup and development programmes and into the UK chapter of my life. Development and commercial exploration continue through Verdevia, a Canadian company connected to the SPPE initiative. The full journey is in the SPPE dossier.
