10. Turning Food Waste into Value with Frankie Fox
Show Notes

My guest this week is Frankie Fox, CEO and Co-founder of foodsquared.earth, and a founder on Cohort 2 of Carbon13’s Venture Builder for the climate crisis. Listen to Frankie talk about:

  • How waste from industrial processes is a massive business opportunity for social and eco-entrepreneurs
  • Why start-up venture incubators are critical for seeding and scaling innovation for tackling climate change
  • How by-products of the food and drinks sector, such as grain from beer companies, can be turned into high value ingredients for other foods
  • Why we can’t afford to charge a green premium for more sustainable solutions, or to compromise quality
  • How the willingness of people to collaborate around issues that they have a passion about is a cause for hope
