The Halifax Innovation District has posted a new feature on CarbonCure Technologies, which compares the Halifax cleantech company’s recent Carbon XPRIZE win with Charles Lindbergh’s flight across the Atlantic Ocean.

Penned by Entrevestor Reporter Avery Mullen, the article points out that Lindbergh rose to fame in 1927 by winning an international competition to be the first to fly across the Atlantic Ocean. The competition helped to spur the trans-Atlantic air transport industry.

CarbonCure, whose technology uses carbon to cure concrete, is following Lindbergh’s path. In winning US$8 million in the Carbon XPRIZE, CarbonCure is forging ahead in a new industry: finding industrial uses for carbon that would otherwise be emitted into the atmosphere.
