In this episode, Charlie shares how he and his cofounder developed the brilliant idea of creating low-cost, high-value biodegradable ingredients using naturally occurring yeast; how his decades of experience launching cutting-edge, complex products enabled him to devise a stellar business strategy for long-term success; and how RubyBio will powerfully transform the current chemical production industry, greatly reducing its immensely detrimental impacts on both the planet and our bodies.

Bonus! Charlie grills Managing Partner Mike Edelhart on the challenges and inner workings of managing such a cutting-edge and unconventional fund.
