You live and learn - I just didn't realise that "ecosystem" means an
industrial infrastructure for entrepreneurship and innovation. Sigh.
Sorry, allergic to PR-speak, and thus to those who "created" this
message rather than simply writing it. mumblemumble... Nice bike, I
guess. - K.

AGILITY GLOBAL SELECTED AS UK REPRESENTATIVES OF CLEANTECH INNOVATION
Agility Global, the London-based cleantech SME has been selected
amongst a handful of start-up companies to represent the UK in a
trade mission to showcase British innovation in green technology.
Agility is designer and manufacturer of world's first
high-performance, clean tech motorcycle, Saietta R. The Saietta R,
capable of achieving 0-60mph in 3.9 seconds, will be one of the most
energy efficient vehicles on the road - equivalent to 386 miles per
gallon. The motorcycle is set to launch in 2014, and is currently
available for pre-order while a prototype of the Saietta R is
currently on display at The National Motorcycle Museum, having
previously exhibited at The London Science Museum.
Agility CEO, Lawrence Marazzi said: "We are delighted to have been
chosen to represent Britain at such a prestigious event. The UK is
at the forefront in key areas of research and development that solve
the global pollution and emission problems that larger cities face.
Increasing levels of investment are channelling into the sector -
this presents an obvious and significant market opportunity for
businesses like ourselves to create tangible solutions to shape a
more energy-efficient future.
"We are passionate about design and technological innovation, which
we aim to transmit through our products. The Colorado Mission
represents an ideal outlet to further our networks and business
relationships - principally with the US, but also the wider
international marketplace."
Clean and Cool Mission, which will be held in Colorado in December
is a showcase for Britain's best cleantech innovators to explore
business opportunities associated with tackling climate change. The
Mission will see sixteen UK cleantech companies learn from key
leaders in the field and network with potential investors in
Boulder, Denver and Fort Collins - they will participate in the
National Renewable Energy Laboratory's (NREL) Industry Growth Forum,
the premier clean energy investment event in the U.S.
Discussing the Mission, David Bott, Director of Innovation
Programmes at the Technology Strategy Board, said: "The U.S has one
of the most innovative and dynamic cleantech ecosystems. The Mission
will provide the participants with the opportunity to establish
partnerships, secure investment and help launch their business to a
large, continually expanding and thriving technology market."
Simon Carter, Deputy Director, Head of Renewable Energy at UKTI,
added: "We are delighted to sponsor the Clean and Cool Mission to
Colorado and support UK innovation internationally. Colorado is a
fast and reliable gateway to the U.S and to global markets and the
Mission will allow the firms to learn how to turn their innovations
into tangible business opportunities."
Colorado is the fastest-growing cleantech ecosystem in the United
States and was recently ranked the second best state for
entrepreneurship and innovation, according to CNBC. The week-long
Mission was organised by the UK's innovation agency, The Technology
Strategy Board, together with The Long Run Venture and UK Trade and
Investment.
