In todays episode, I am speaking with Isabella, Founder and CEO of Bosque Foods. Their mission is to create the best tasting and minimally processed, whole-cut meat and fish alternatives grown naturally from fungal mycelium.
Isabella has an academic background in sustainability and agriculture. She has spent her career building startups in the United States, Europe, and Asia. She has a proven track record in leading tech startups to scale internationally, most recently for ag-tech startup Infarm. She brings her passion for sustainability, decade-long experience in fermentation, and experience in business management and strategy to lead Bosque Foods as CEO.
We are speaking about the ancient fermentation process, originally used for wine and beer and its renaissance in the food-tech industry, why fungi can be the hidden champion in creating clean and less processed meat alternatives. You will also learn about the chances and obstacles in scaling a mycelium food-tech business in the current macroeconomic climate.
