A little bit late to the Odyssey trend, but we got some awesome new monitors and our office loved them… in all sorts of ways.

(Thank you LG 😛)

What began with savings, a dream, and a student project has grown into something much bigger.

ALBON is proof that one idea can create a ripple effect — building a team, advancing technology, and creating solutions that can do good for the planet.

With support from Taronga's Hatch program and the LG Life’s Good Award, their journey has gone from a university hackathon to developing technology with the potential to transform wastewater treatment across industries.

One small idea. A growing impact. 🌱

Kicking off September with a BANG.

Yesterday, our team: John (CEO), Tom (COO), and Andrea (CTO) took the stage at the Cicada x Tech 23 event at Daltone House to share ALBON’s vision for agricultural wastewater with guests and attendees.

The energy, the questions, the connections — it was surreal, and it’s exactly why we do what we do.

It was incredible interacting with guests from all walks of life, and the panel members were phenomenal. Thank you Cicada x Tech 23 for having us. Onwards and upwards from here.

So what’s next for ALBON? We’ve been invited to the One Young World Summit in South Africa this November.

Stay tuned! ☘️🌿🧪

Co-founder vs Co-founder. Some people sliding a little too quickly on some of these questions.

No startup changes the world alone.

For ALBON, innovation wasn’t just about building technology - it was about building the right community around it.

From engineers and researchers to participating in Taronga’s Hatch program, supported by LG, collaboration has been at the heart of bringing their vision to life.

Because when people with different expertise come together, bigger impact becomes possible.

Collaboration doesn’t just accelerate ideas - they help make them real 🌏

Asking the office what year they were born. Not many of us are born with a ‘19’ at the start but we made it work somehow.

ALBO ❤️ ALBON!!?

ALBON just landed $50,000 in matched funding through the @nswgov’s MVP Ventures Program! 🎉

This funding is going straight into the next stage of our algae-bacteria wastewater treatment system, built for abattoirs, dairies and food processing sites.

Here’s the problem we’re solving: these sites are under growing pressure to cut nitrogen, phosphorus and suspended solids from their wastewater, but most existing solutions mean expensive infrastructure overhauls. We’re building something modular instead, a more practical, accessible way for regional processors to treat high strength effluent without the huge price tag.

The funding covers lab validation and scaling up our system, as we gear up for our first paid pilot at Corstorphine Dairy Farm later this year 🌱

Massive thanks to Investment NSW for backing early stage companies working on real environmental tech.

Let’s goo! 🧪🚀
