Popular Mechanics (South Africa)
WHERE IT ALL STARTED
During Matthew’s school years, he and his father Robert Bray worked together on many of his science projects. These included exhibiting in the Taiwan and Namibian international science fairs, as well as building an electric car together when Matt was 14.
Matt and Robert’s shared passion for innovation, coupled with Robert’s illustrious career as a prolific architect in South Africa and Matthew’s background in finance at Goldman Sachs and BASF, made for the perfect foundation for Brayfoil’s revolutionary technology. Brayfoil has grown from a passion project in Robert’s garage into a groundbreaking emerging technology that has gained international recognition from some of CleanTech’s most respected institutions. It’s all a remarkable legacy left behind by Robert Bray, who sadly succumbed to complications from COVID-19 in 2020.
