      <image:title>NCMI Team Bio - Innovakote West Michigan | Kent City, MI - Creating a circular recycling solution for industrial waste powder coatings</image:title>
      <image:caption>Innovakote is a growing startup with a novel technology process to recycle industrial powder coating material. During the NextCycle program, the team successfully supplied recycled powder coating to all the large furniture manufacturers in Michigan. They improved their storytelling and pitching to provide a better understanding of their noval technology. Now, Innovakote is ready to move out of the pilot phase and bring its product to other industries like the automotive industry. Its primary focus is expanding its market share and obtaining additional market exposure. In May 2022, Innovakote won the WateExpo Pitch Slam. The pitch competition featured teams from both NextCycle Michigan and NextCycle Colorado all with projects ready to create new pathways to a circular economy.</image:caption>

      <image:title>NCMI Team Bio - Pivot Materials | Detroit, MI - recycling of industrial paper byproducts waste into next generation materials that combat climate change while creating employment opportunities</image:title>
      <image:caption>Pivot Materials is a growing business that tests and creates end market products from waste streams. They've had previous success with making and selling products made from agricultural waste. During the NextCycle program, the project team partnered with Great Lake Tissues on planning steps to make a product out of paper manufacturing by-product material. The project demonstrates the potential scaling to other larger paper manufacturing facilities. They also connected with an investor and learn how to successful communicate their business through a pitch presentation. Currently, there is a new opportunity lined up with retailers to sell their current and future products.</image:caption>

During the program, the team advanced their project to be funding ready. The team lined-up clothing brand and manufacturing partners for a circular economy roundtable. The project team is looking to get product input and commitments from these partners once the pilot is started. They improved their understanding of the equipment needed, sourcing and quoting the pinfelting machine. The project team connected with potential feedstock partners, like Goodwill West Michigan, at the RIT Pitch Competition. Once the project team receives enough funding for the machine deposit, the team plans on starting the pilot project.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Closed Loop Partners, through its Closed Loop Infrastructure Group, pledges support to NextCycle Michigan, an initiative designed to connect eco-entrepreneurs, companies, organizations, and communities to technical support, capacity building, and financial resources for recycling, recovery, and reuse projects.  Over the three-year partnership, Closed Loop Partners and NextCycle Michigan will identify and support investable innovative recycling projects that: Develop recovery infrastructure solutions for post-consumer recyclable materials with a focus on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and aluminum; Optimize innovative collection systems for polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP); and Divert from landfill back into the supply chain. Since 2014, Closed Loop Partners has invested in circular innovations, with an existing portfolio of more than 50 investments that have collectively diverted more than 4,600 million pounds of material from landfills and back into manufacturing supply chains. The firm’s Closed Loop Infrastructure Group deploys catalytic capital across a range of circular economy projects, companies, infrastructure, and enabling technologies. Past investments include a recycling facility expansion and upgrade that included the first artificial intelligence-powered material sorting robots aimed at improving efficiency in Emmet County, Michigan, as well as a new single-stream recycling facility estimated to process thousands of tons of recyclables per year in rural Marquette County, Michigan.  Interested individuals should join the NextCycle Michigan community to receive updates on opportunities to join upcoming Innovation Challenges.
