It’s April this week 😳

Every year, nearly 15 billion plastic plant pots end up in landfill. Kiwi startup Compostify wants to change that with a home compostable pot that breaks down in the soil and nourishes it.

Caffeine caught up with co-founder Steve Wilson to talk plastic waste, global potential, and the long road to creating something that works like plastic but disappears like magic. Also in today’s edition:

  • 🌏 Why NZ Is on Track to Become a Tech Utopia

  • 🚀 Rocket Lab Secures $5.6B Defence Deal

  • Bowen Pan on Building Marketplace Giants and Spotting What Others Miss

  • Don’t miss Tracksuit’s FREE webinar on building brand and performance marketing that work together

  • Creative HQ needs a Senior Innovation Specialist

  • The essential Silicon Valley insider book dropping in May you don’t want to miss

Hope today gets your week off to a good start. If you want to do one small thing to support this community, help keep us going with a paid sub.
