In episode 76, I interviewed Simo Ellilä, the founder and CEO of Enifer, a Finnish company that produces plant-based protein from industrial waste. He shared with us his vision of creating a more sustainable and ethical food chain, and how he plans to overcome the challenges of scaling up his business.

In episode 77, I had a fascinating conversation with Gunter Pauli, the author of The Blue Economy and a pioneer of the circular economy. He explained to us what the blue economy is, how it can solve some of the most pressing environmental and social problems, and what we can learn from nature's design principles.
