In this inspiring episode of the Stick Lounge Podcast, we sit down with Des Moines City Council candidate, Pierre Blosse, a scientist-turned-entrepreneur and passionate community advocate whose journey spans continents, industries, and impact. 

Born in Nantes, France and raised in California’s Bay Area, Pierre Blosse shares how a love for science led to degrees in Genetics and Plant Biology from UC Berkeley and a unique Master of Business and Science in Biotechnology from KGI. After nearly a decade at DuPont Pioneer in Iowa, they founded IVYX Scientific — a global supplier of lab and medical equipment with over $8 million in lifetime sales. 

Now based in Des Moines, Washington, Pierre Blosse opens up about his deep commitment to family, community, and equity. As Vice President of the Des Moines Legacy Foundation, Pierre champions access to the arts and support for underserved families. And with a run for City Council underway, he’s bringing practical leadership and a fresh voice to local politics. 

Tune in for a rich conversation about innovation, civic engagement, and the power of building a better future — one neighborhood at a time.
