Virtually every single brilliant word in this speech applies to us and so many other cover ups. Thank you @AlexDaviesJones 👏

Speaking on @bbcsomerset Sir Liam Fox explaining why he is urging @10DowningStreet to order a fresh review into the 1994 crash.

"Did the RAF or MoD deliberately try to cover up..."
"I have a strong enough belief to raise that with the PM"

[Chinook Justice @ChinookJustice]

Along with our families, ex Def Sec Sir Liam Fox has delivered his letter to @10DowningStreet calling for a new review into why our loved ones were put on an unairworthy helicopter.

Where was defence minister @LukePollard 31 years ago? Seems he might have circumvented 31 years of cover-up over ZD576

Perhaps he's been reading our late technical expert David Hill's books - one of them entitled The Inconvenient Truth" #chinookjustice

We now have a new feature on our website. It's not a great feature to be honest.

It's the number of days our families have been waiting for truth, transparency and justice.

The number is a disgrace. Please sign our petition https://t.co/O2SoNiBZma

[Beyond Earth Ventures @BeyondEarthTech]

In her recent interview with International Finance Magazine @IntlFinanceMag, Alexandra Vidyuk @bastinda , our CEO & General Partner at Beyond Earth Ventures, shared a powerful insight: while traditional tech bets fluctuate with market cycles, deep tech builds the systems humanity can’t live without.

She highlighted that:
🌎 Government policy has become the primary catalyst for breakthroughs in space, semiconductors, quantum computing, and energy.
💡 The deep tech market is projected to grow at 48.2% CAGR, reaching $714.6B by 2031.
🚀 Sectors like space robotics, AI-powered energy systems, and next-gen compute are now the backbone of national security and economic resilience.

At Beyond Earth Ventures, we back companies creating that future – from lunar rovers and orbital assembly to advanced materials and decentralized energy systems. These aren’t just startups; they are the foundation of a new industrial era.

It’s a story about me but it could be a story about anyone and it’s far more optimistic than you might think.
