#224 Exponential Africa - Arturo Elizondo
Today on the Exponential Africa Show, Mic Mann has a great chat with Arturo Elizondo. CEO of Clara Foods - developing performance protein products and making the world's first animal free egg white protein. Clara foods uses advanced fermentation processes to brew protein that is cleaner greener and kinder to our environment.
Arturo grew up eating eggs for breakfast and meat with almost every meal, never thinking about where his food really came from. At his first internship at the department of agriculture Arturo discovered that a million animals are slaughtered every hour in the USA, and the amount of water, land and protein needed to feed a growing populations was unsustainable. This led and inspired the creation of Clara foods, finding a better way to provide protein without the harmful long lasting effects on the planet and its limited resources.
