Three, Sixty Interview: BiaSol Co-Founders on Upcycling Food Waste into Nutrition

What’s a “Three, Sixty” Interview?

Three, Sixty is an interview format where I pose three questions on the theme of sustainability to an impact entrepreneur or innovator, to get a better understanding—in sixty seconds—of how they’re working to achieve the UN SDG targets. This interview first featured in Issue 11 of our SDG Alpha newsletter, published on September 03, 2021.

Who’s the Interview With?

This interview features Niamh and Ruairi Dooley, the sibling co-founders behind BiaSol. With an initial focus on recycling spend brewer’s grain as a Direct To Consumer brand, Niamh and Ruairi have expanded their focus, and have launched Circular Food Co to offer upcycled products to the food ingredients sector. Circular Food Co are currently participating on the BnM Accelerate Green Programme, delivered by Resolve Partners.

Interview

On a personal level, what impacts of the climate crisis are you most concerned about?

We are most concerned about food waste as most of it, about 80%, can be avoided. In Ireland, we generate more than one million tonnes of food waste every year! On a global level, food waste accounts for 8-10% of greenhouse gas emissions.

One manageable step we can all take is to reduce food waste and that’s an easy way to start tackling the climate crisis on our hands.

With the global population continuing to grow and natural resources becoming more stressed, it is time to start valuing and respecting our food systems and resources more and more. Food is the energy we need to survive and when you take a look around sometimes you wonder if we have forgotten to appreciate this.

One can’t help noticing the change in behaviour over a few generations. Remembering back to childhood where the summers were spent in the West with our grandparents. They wasted very little and could see value in every resource. I think by looking back sometimes we can learn from the past and we as a population can learn from the resourcefulness of previous eras to reduce waste.

Which of the UN SDGs did you start BiaSol to address?

BiaSol was founded from the need to innovate current food systems, improve the availability of nutritional foods and promote behaving sustainably. We primarily address Goal 3, but also fit with Goals 12 and 9.

What is important to us is to provide consumers with sustainable and nutritious food products. We believe food is medicine so we have aligned ourselves with Goal 3 – Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages. As lifestyles have become more fast paced our diets have suffered. Foods have become more processed to become more convenient and ‘ready to use’ which can ultimately strip out essential nutrients. 75% of the Irish adult population does not meet the recommended daily allowance for fibre, and fibre has been proven to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, colon cancer, and IBS.

BiaSol also aligns with Goal 12 – Responsible Consumption and Production Patterns. Our aim is to challenge existing food systems and see if there is a more viable production process that can be implemented. When we noticed that brewers’ spent grain is not fulfilling its potential we began to design a production pattern that can help us utilise the full nutritional density it has to offer.

What motivated us to start BiaSol was our realisation of how much food the world will need by 2050, an increase of 60%. We all know the demand on the planet is already at a tipping point so the way we think needs to change. We can relate to Goal 9 – Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure in terms of innovation. Upcycling is not a new word but it’s niche in the food industry and we believe there is tonnes of potential to innovate in food so we can sustain our growing population into the future.

How does your business model enable the transition to a low carbon, or more sustainable future?

Our business model is centred around using byproducts or food waste to create nutritious foods that are good for you and our planet. By reusing resources already in the food chain we will help other businesses reduce their carbon footprint and become a part of the circular economy.

If food is wasted and ends up in landfills it breaks down and produces methane, a greenhouse gas which is more potent than carbon dioxide. In Ireland, we generate more than one million tonnes of food waste every year which represents a carbon footprint as high as 3.6 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent!

To really tackle food waste there needs to be collaborations and partnerships within the industry and also to generate awareness among consumers. One such example is our partnership with local breweries, we repurpose brewers’ spent grains from a local brewery into baking flour and this flour is then used to make pizzas in this same brewery which has a bar and restaurant. Customers can even pair the pizza with the same beer the flour is made from!

Our vision for BiaSol is to operate a business that doesn’t contribute to the problem of waste but instead are leaders to the solution. We may only be a drop in the ocean but we hope to have that ripple effect!

Key Takeaways

Niamh and Ruairi Dooley’s work with BiaSol and Circular Food Co highlights how sustainable food innovation can drive real impact—from tackling Ireland’s food waste crisis to improving public health through nutrition. By upcycling brewers’ spent grain into high-fibre ingredients, they’re not just reducing emissions—they’re helping reshape food systems in line with SDGs 3, 9 and 12. It’s a reminder that circular thinking can start with something as simple—and powerful—as bread made from beer.

Three, Sixty Interview: Troy Armour on Fashioning a Circular Future with Junk Kouture

What’s a “Three, Sixty” Interview?

Three, Sixty is an interview format where I pose three questions on the theme of sustainability to an impact entrepreneur or innovator, to get a better understanding in sixty seconds of how they’re working to achieve the UN SDG targets. This interview first featured in Issue 10 of our SDG Alpha newsletter, published on July 09, 2021.

Who’s the Interview With?

we create circular engineers – young people who see trash as a raw material – who will find new ways to reuse this material rather than dump it and make something again from scratch—Troy Armour, on providing circular fashion education with Junk Kouture

This interview features Troy Armour, founder of Junk Kouture, a global platform empowering young people to become circular designers. While not affiliated with Resolve, Troy’s mission-driven approach and focus on youth, creativity and sustainability reflect the kind of impact entrepreneur we’re passionate about supporting. Learn more about how Resolve Partners helps corporates engage with innovation that delivers real-world impact here.

On a personal level, what impacts of the climate crisis are you most concerned about?

The impacts of the climate crisis that have hit me is our own level of consumerism – this need that we have to buy and consume at feverish levels. There are many things driving this – myself as an entrepreneur – to be successful we have to drive business growth – aka more consumerism – it’s a never-ending cycle. In our house we have recently tried to have plastic free Christmas – it’s mad how much toys and silly things we would buy made from plastic just because we could – most of them are unconscious decisions – impulse buys. It’s going to be a challenge to get the business world onside with this as any business model with less consumerism means less growth.

Which of the UN SDGs did you start Junk Kouture to address?

When JK [Junk Kouture] started originally it wasn’t about the SDGs for me – it was about creating a fun platform for creative young people – as we grew over the years we directly support three, and indirectly a further 9. I started to hone in on the elements of Junk Kouture that spoke to me personally – it was the education that it delivered. It was the self-education – where young people learned about themselves and their environment through the creative challenge of using trash to make wearable fashion. Thus, the SDG that really stood out to me was Quality Education [SDG 4] as JK supports young adults to explore creative and technical skills, exposing them to a broader set of skillsets. This can expand the possibility of their future employment options and empower them to explore more entrepreneurial endeavours.

Good Health & Well-being is a second SDG [SDG 3] that we’re passionate about addressing. JK offers a creative community for young adults to come together through a shared passion for creative expression and explorative design. Creating a space for young adults to feel a sense of belonging in their chosen expressive field greatly supports mental health and well-being for teenagers otherwise on the fringes of their peer groups.

Thirdly, SDG 12, Responsible Consumption and Production, as JK encourages young adults to challenge the traditional ‘take-make-dispose’ linear model of fashion production. By turning “waste” back into creation of wearable fashion, JK is fostering a new generation of circular engineers.

Through the JK process, participants become more aware of sustainable development and humans role in destroying, or living in harmony with nature.

How does your business model enable the transition to a low carbon, or more sustainable future?

Our business model is about creating people and planet transformation – we create circular engineers – young people who see trash as a raw material – who will find new ways to reuse this material rather than dump it and make something again from scratch. For example our alumni participant Katie Brill who made a leather like material from orange peel – it’s thinking like this that will create the solutions needed to help us build a more sustainable future.

Three, Sixty Interview: Sarah-Marie Rust on Electrifying Fleets with EVE

What’s a “Three, Sixty” Interview?

Three, Sixty is an interview format where I pose three questions on the theme of sustainability to an impact entrepreneur or innovator, to get a better understanding in sixty seconds of how they’re working to achieve the UN SDG targets. This interview first featured in Issue 8 of the SDG Alpha newsletter, published on July 09, 2021.

Who’s the Interview With?

This interview features Sarah-Marie Rust, CEO and Co-Founder at EVE, an early-stage company who previously participated in the Accelerate Green programme, delivered by Resolve. Learn more about how Resolve Partners can support your corporate innovation strategy here.

On a personal level, what impacts of the climate crisis are you most concerned about?

I’m worried about how climate change will further foster inequality. The climate crisis is undeniably a threat to everyone. However, socially and economically disadvantaged groups are facing the greatest risks as they don’t have access to the resources and capacity needed to prepare for and recover from extreme climate events. We can’t undo the damage that has already been done but we have to ensure that those most vulnerable to the results of our actions are protected and supported. While each of us individually can make changes to their behaviour to reduce their carbon footprint, e.g. consuming less animal products, shopping seasonal and locally grown produce, and selecting more sustainable means of transport, companies need to step up and commit to a sustainable strategy as well.

Which of the UN SDGs did you start EVE to address?

We started EVE to empower the transition to electric, sustainable mobility. We are mainly focussed on SDG 13 – Climate Action, supporting companies to electrify their fleets. However, at EVE, we don’t stop there. We know that an electric car can only be as green as the electricity it is consuming. This is why we are actively empowering our customers to charge the EVs as sustainable as possible to ensure their fleet is not only electric but also carbon neutral.

We’ve recently started to see and understand the importance of SDG 17 – Partnership for the Goals. Our aim is to build a sustainable ecosystem, involving the players of the energy and e-mobility sector to foster innovation and sustainability.

How does your business model enable the transition to a low carbon, or more sustainable future?

With our solution, companies can electrify their fleets faster and at lesser cost. Our software constantly optimizes the charging transactions for cost and energy efficiency and empowers our customers to achieve their net zero sustainability goals. With EVE, a fleet’s L2 emissions can be reduced by 36%, without dramatically changing the driver’s charging behaviour, solely based on the fact that they choose better and greener charging options. Companies who have more drastic sustainability goals are able to decrease their fleet’s emissions by over 60%, with EVE’s software being key to helping drivers develop a greener charging profile over time. We want to be that crucial partner that helps companies achieve a new, sustainable way of mobility.

Powering Up in Cork: DNV’s Big Step and What Comes Next

Last Friday, I had the privilege of attending a packed and energised event in Cork, hosted by DNV to mark their acquisition and rebranding of Irish environmental consultancy Enviroguide Consulting. It was more than a rebrand—it was a clear signal of intent. The event brought together a dynamic mix of energy leaders, investors, engineers and innovators to share insights and build connections around the future of Ireland’s low-carbon economy.

The panel discussion was wide-ranging, thoughtful, and refreshingly focused on tangible progress. It was particularly exciting to hear how organisations like Gas Networks Ireland and ESB are advancing plans for a hydrogen-powered energy system—producing and storing green hydrogen from offshore wind, repurposing existing gas infrastructure to deliver it efficiently, and integrating it with battery storage to help create a diverse, resilient grid. These aren’t just sustainability projects; they’re critical to energy independence and national security.

DNV’s announcement of plans to create 200 jobs in Ireland added extra weight to the occasion. Their team highlighted the strong appetite from investors in energy and environmental infrastructure—but also stressed the need to treat the transition as a national strategic investment. Long-term planning, EU funding alignment, and public-private collaboration are all essential to delivering the scale required.

It was also inspiring to hear from Wilderway, who are pioneering a nature restoration model built around biodiversity credits. By working directly with landowners and financing rewilding initiatives — from reforestation to peatland restoration — they’re showing how nature-based solutions can be both ecologically and economically viable.

For Resolve Partners, the event was a reminder that global actors are watching Ireland closely — and stepping in with both expertise and intent. The DNV-Enviroguide integration isn’t just about scale, it’s about capability-building in a space where local knowledge and international standards must meet. With over 160 years of experience and expertise, I got a great sense of optimism from learning more about DNV’s strategic ambitions for the new Irish operation, including their plans to develop a new Biodiversity Centre of Excellence here.

Resolve Partners are here for this. Supporting the next generation of founders tackling these challenges isn’t just our job—it’s how we contribute to the bigger picture, and strengthening our relationships with shared-values and shared-vision organisations like DNV allows us to be even more effective in helping Irish entrepreneurs and business leaders realise their impact goals.

Thanks to the DNV team for hosting a fantastic event, and to the speakers for the inspiration. If you’re building something that belongs in this ecosystem, let’s talk.

Reflections from Climate Cocktail Club Dublin #11

Last week’s Climate Cocktail Club Dublin gathering was a timely reminder that biodiversity isn’t just something to protect in distant rainforests—it’s woven into our daily lives, decisions, and even our dinner plates. Hosted at The Sugar Club, CCC #11 took on the slightly cheeky—but very fitting—title, “The Birds, The Bees, and Biodiversity (for Adults)”.

The event brought together an eclectic mix of experts, advocates, and everyday climate-concerned citizens to explore what biodiversity really means in an Irish context. This wasn’t just about species counts or policy frameworks—it was about storytelling, systems thinking, and sparking unexpected conversations.

Resolve Partners attended because we believe biodiversity is not a footnote in sustainability—it’s the whole page. Whether you’re an entrepreneur designing nature-positive solutions, or an investor thinking long-term about risk and resilience, biodiversity is fast becoming a key lens through which innovation will be judged.

While there was a fantastic range of speakers during the course of the evening, Fintan Kelly (the Irish Environmental Network’s Agriculture & Land Use Policy & Advocacy Officer) was a notable stand-out, as he set the stage perfectly with a scene-setting overview of Ireland’s biodiversity crisis—how we got here, what’s been lost, and what’s still at stake. Drawing on his deep experience in ecological policy and advocacy, Fintan offered a sobering yet accessible briefing on the systemic drivers of biodiversity loss in Ireland. From agricultural intensification to under-resourced enforcement, he helped connect the dots between policy decisions and ecological outcomes, reminding the room that Ireland’s natural capital isn’t just vanishing—it’s being traded away. His call for structural change, not just surface-level gestures, gave the evening both urgency and direction.

One of the standout features of the evening was the atmosphere. There’s something uniquely effective about pairing a biodiversity briefing with a cocktail in hand and a curious crowd around you. It’s how movements grow: through human connection, shared laughter, and a gentle push toward deeper understanding.

We’re grateful to the Climate Cocktail Club for curating such a thoughtful and engaging evening. Events like this help ground abstract terms like “nature-positive” or “just transition” in the real world—and remind us that even the thorniest environmental challenges can be tackled when people come together, with purpose and a bit of personality.

We left the venue energised, better informed, and keen to keep biodiversity on the agenda—not just for the birds and the bees, but for the systems that sustain us all.

The 2025 Growing Further Awards

Resolve Partners were delighted to attend the Growing Further Awards in Dublin, an event that celebrates innovation in the grocery retail supply chain. With its strong focus on sustainability and commercial impact, the awards align closely with the work we do at Accelerate Green, supporting ventures that are shaping a greener future. Congratulations to all the event partners, and in particular to Greenman Investments for showing leadership in supporting innovation in this important industry sector.

A particular highlight was seeing Biota Monitoring—an Accelerate Green alumni—among the finalists. Their progress since taking part in our programme has been impressive, and it was fantastic to see them recognised here. Biota’s technology integrates data from central operating systems, certification bodies (e.g., Fairtrade), and procurement software to deliver audit-grade insights—all without needing to contact a single site. The event also provided an opportunity to engage with forward-thinking businesses and investors who share our commitment to sustainable innovation.

Oliver Begley, Biota Monitoring

Congratulations to all the winners and finalists, and in particular to food-waste treatment developer Billion Carbon, who emerged victorious with the top prize. We look forward to continuing our support for ventures that drive real environmental and commercial change, and the development of a strong ecosystem that allows this to happen at the pace required.

2024 Highlights: How We Supported 80+ Entrepreneurs, and What’s Next

Now that we’re up and running in 2025, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on the strong progress we made at Resolve Partners throughout 2024. Last year was packed with exciting projects, meaningful collaborations, and impactful results—all made possible through your continued support and trust. From innovative solutions to ambitious ventures, we’ve been proud to work alongside you to tackle challenges and deliver lasting value—and across the year, we directly supported 80+ entrepreneurs on our end-to-end programmes.

Accelerate Green

One standout highlight was the continuation of our work with Bord na Móna on Accelerate Green, the award-winning sustainability accelerator programme. We delivered a record three cohorts over 2024, and in the process supported 26 Irish companies across a variety of climate solution sectors. It was inspiring to see so many of these businesses being championed at Bord na Móna’s Accelerate Green Conference in May 2024, which showcased ground-breaking innovations, and fostered key partnerships for delivering sustainability impact. If you’re interested in learning more about the Accelerate Green programme then we’d be delighted to see you at the 2025 edition of the Accelerate Green Conference—keep an eye on your inbox for a invite in the weeks ahead.

SETU startX

Resolve Partners also delivered the startX innovation programme in 2024, in partnership with South East Technological University (SETU). The programme supported four cohorts of early-stage innovators, providing mentorship, insights, and entrepreneurial tools to help participants navigate their start-up journeys. Culminating in the startX Showcase event in May, participants shared their progress and ideas with stakeholders, highlighting the programme’s focus on fostering innovation and strengthening connections within the South East’s entrepreneurial ecosystem.

Enterprise Ireland New Frontiers

Another major highlight was the New Frontiers Accelerate pilot programme, delivered in partnership with TU Dublin and Enterprise Ireland. This intensive programme equipped early-stage entrepreneurs with the tools, mentorship, and strategies needed to launch scalable businesses. The showcase in November featured innovative pitches from participants, demonstrating market-ready solutions across sectors like cyber compliance, sustainability, and health – this is a great example of the work we’re engaged in nationwide with the New Frontiers programme.

Food and Agriculture Sustainable Technology Innovation Programme (FAST-IP)

In collaboration with University College Dublin (UCD) and Teagasc, we also delivered the Food and Agriculture Sustainable Technology Innovation Programme (FAST-IP). This initiative supported 15 participants with scholarships and practical experience to develop solutions in agricultural technology and food sustainability, accelerating commercialisation and driving innovation in Ireland’s food and agriculture sector. We’re excited to see the expansion of similar “needs-led” innovation programmes in the coming years, particularly in the area of climate and biodiversity entrepreneurship.

As we move forward into 2025, we couldn’t be more excited about what’s to come. With new opportunities on the horizon and a goal to keep supporting the best of Ireland’s innovative business leaders, we can’t wait to build on last year’s momentum and continue delivering results that matter. Thank you for being part of our journey so far—here’s to another year of growth, collaboration, and success.

Wishing you a fantastic start to the New Year!
