# Vinventions Founder Marc Noël nominated for 2018 Innovator of the Year Award
6 Sep 2018
Vinventions and Nomacorc founder Marc Noël continues his legacy of disrupting the wine world with consistent out-of-the-box vision. Noël founded Nomacorc in 1999 to provide an efficiently produced, low-cost wine cork alternative at a time when natural wood corks were beset by TCA-taint. Among recent innovations for the company are Select Green, the first wine closure with zero carbon footprint, made from sugarcane, and SUBR, the world's first glue-free micro-agglomerated cork. Since January 2015, Nomacorc, Ohlinger Group and Syntek have joined Vinventions, and the company has created strategic partnerships with industry leaders like [Cork Supply](https://corksupply.com/us/), a natural cork supplier.
