Congratulations to our MIT
Development Ventures alumnus Scot Frank and the
SolSource / OneEarthDesigns venture team for winning the
St Andrews Prize for the Environment! They will use their $75,000 prize to support the first large-scale field test and production trial in their
Himalayan target market. Their cooker is light weight, low-cost, and portable. It is made from traditional nomadic tent material, locally-sourced bamboo, and a minimum of elements imported from out-of-region. Different modules which can be attached on-demand to the cooker can turn it from a food warmer into a water heater or into a thermo-electricity generator.
