HBBE: Students Reimagine Food Economy
A team of students selected by the Hub for Biotechnology in the Built Environment (HBBE), a collaborative initiative between Northumbria and Newcastle universities, presented at BDC 2020. HBBE Co-Director and Professor of Emerging Technology at Newcastle University, Martyn Dade-Robertson, said: “We expected that once the lockdown was announced that the groups, who were already facing pressures from their own courses, would decide to drop out but they fought through. Our selected finalists took on Covid-19 as part of their motivation and found new ways of working together.”
