Ben Locke Biography :

Benjamin Locke is the Director of Government Programs at Metabolix, where he has established a $20 million portfolio of Government programs focused on using agricultural resources to replace petrochemical based polymer systems. He interacts with federal and state lawmakers and leaders to guide policy and legislation in favor of bioproducts, renewable resources, biomass energy, and agriculture-based industrial systems, and he has successfully steered language in key legislation in favor of biobased, renewable products.

Mr. Locke is also responsible for all sales and marketing of Metabolix natural plastic to Government segments. He has established key test and evaluation programs within the Department of Defense for several applications of natural plastic, which will lead to adoption and sales of products to the Army and Navy. He works closely with the other members of the Metabolix sales and marketing team to position natural plastic as an attractive alternative to petrochemical plastics.

Prior to joining Metabolix in 2001, Mr. Locke was Vice President of Research at Innovative Imaging Systems, a high-tech R&D company. He was responsible for development and implementation of growth strategies for funding of specialty electronic systems for the Government.
