Inspired by the composition of coral and seashells, their process combines microalgae with other natural components to form a zero-carbon bio-cement and bio-concrete. 

The University of Colorado Connection

Prometheus Materials Inc., which produces a zero-carbon concrete alternative, was co-founded by four faculty members at CU Â鶹¹ÙÍø: Wil Srubar, Sherri Cook, Mija Hubler (CU Â鶹¹ÙÍø Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering) and Jeff Cameron (CU Â鶹¹ÙÍø Biochemistry). With a cross-disciplinary grant from DARPA that funded the underlying inventions, they were interested in forming a startup company and worked with Venture Partners to find a CEO and co-founder. Through the Venture Partners mentor network, they found serial entrepreneur Loren Burnett, and since then, Prometheus Materials has been off to the races! Prometheus is now headquartered in Longmont, CO.
