David Breslauer, Bolt Threads: Using Nature To Design Our Future

This week we head to Silicon Valley where Damien Clarkson speaks to David Breslauer Chief Scientific Officer and Co-Founder of Bolt Threads, an incredible company replicating the processes of the natural world to invent and scale plant-based textile innovations . David takes us on a journey with him from an ambitious post-grad thesis to becoming an entrepreneur collaborating with Stella McCartney, and how his leather grown from mushrooms could be part of the solution to the climate crisis. This episode is a must listen for anyone interested in the creation of materials to replace the use of leather and other materials of animal origin.
