Keeping bees with a Flow Hive: a journey from innovation to commercial success

Venue: Public Lecture Theatre, Old Arts Public Lecture Theatre

Presenters: Mr Cedar Anderson, Mr Stuart Anderson

Stuart and Cedar Anderson are the inventors of the Flow Hive, which has taken the beekeeping world by storm. In February, 2015, they launched an Indiegogo crowd funding campaign with the humble goal of raising US$70,000 to develop their invention. The goal was reached within 477 seconds and so far US$3,365,284 was raised. By April 15th, 20,000 kits were ordered.

Now, the Flow Hive is exported worldwide and changed how bees are being kept and honey is harvested. The company also supports beekeeping clubs and beekeeping education.

This event is presented by the University's Sustainable Campus team.
