After 21 years, Biox has said a fond farewell to one of its founder directors and inventor, Professor Bob Imhof.
Heading in good spirit towards his 80s, Bob had stepped back during the last few years, as de facto Honorary Chairman, in preparation for his retirement and has now swapped long hours of scientific endeavour for the greatly cherished company of his grandchildren, allowing remaining directors at Biox to take forward his legacy.
The name “Biox”, Bob’s second company, both of which he founded during his academic career as an applied physicist, was derived from his surname and those of the company’s three other founders; his PhD students Elliott Berg, Don O’Driscoll, and Perry Xiao, exemplifying his generosity of spirit and inclusiveness.
Bob has been the driving force and inspiration behind the development of the AquaFlux and Epsilon. He has worked hard over the years to perfect his inventions and we are all very proud of what Biox has achieved. We wish Bob the very best for his retirement; his warm personality, sense of humour and dedication will be sorely missed.
