Furthr with Founders

Show Notes

This week on the show, we're talking about food and drink; two things that many of us associate with positivity. However, the research shows we are seeing an ever-increasing burden of chronic disease, driven by how the food industry, and by extension our own consumption habits, have evolved. We're discussing innovations and opportunities in the food and drink industries that could help unburden the economy from the strain of obesity and chronic disease, protect the environment and create a nation of healthy citizens. We are joined by : Aonghus Shortt, CEO & founder of FoodMarble Karen O'Neill, CEO & founder of Beekon Batches Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
