Jon-Paul Griffiths: ‘Starting a small company is a phenomenal experience’

I’ve been interested in chemistry ever since I was a kid. I loved fireworks – bangs, flashes, explosions, colours, all the things that are fun when you’re a small child.

Fundamentally at my core, I love making things. As I started to go through my education, I realised the other thing I really enjoyed was the R&D side. I liked trying new things, pushing the boundaries of where the knowledge was, and that combination led me to doing a PhD.
