Ecorem Tech was founded on the belief that biotechnology can lead the charge against climate change and environmental pollution. The company began through a series of brainstorming sessions between researchers, academics, environmental professionals, and consultants who had worked extensively on real-world ecosystem challenges, from massive offshore oil spills to carbon capture and sequestration. Driven by a shared mission, Ecorem Tech is building scalable, nature-aligned solutions that merge the best of science and sustainability.
Founder's Message
“I grew up in a region defined by both natural richness and environmental neglect. The Niger Delta, my home, is a place where communities face the daily realities of pollution, oil spills, and degraded ecosystems. That experience shaped not just my worldview, but my mission.
I founded Ecorem Tech because I believe biotechnology has the power to reverse environmental damage and build a circular economy rooted in nature’s own processes. After nearly a decade and a half of working across the UK and West Africa, managing contaminated sites, treating algal blooms with bacteria-based products, designing novel and sustainable solutions, and advising on environmental policy, I knew it was time to create something bigger than any single project.
At Ecorem Tech, we’re building scalable, science-driven solutions that don’t just treat symptoms; they restore ecosystems. From lakes clogged with algal blooms to the characterisation of petroleum hydrocarbon-degrading microorganisms, our goal is to offer clean, nature-based alternatives that are effective, affordable, and safe for people and the planet.
This is more than a business for me. It’s a commitment to my community, to future generations, and to the belief that environmental justice and technological innovation can, and must, go hand in hand.
Thank you for supporting this journey.”
