What to do with plastic at the end of its life? That is the question, isn’t it? Wouldn’t it be great if we could still find a way to transform these plastics into something useful?

Well, it seems that a specific insect, the Galleria mellonella might be a solution. In this episode, Nathalie Berezina from Norbite explains how this insect can digest and transform plastics into proteins, lipids and biofertilizers. These can then be used in various industries for feed, cosmetics and more.

Covid, supply chain, the Ukrainian conflict... The crises follow one another. It makes you wonder if a startup can still launch itself and make its mark on the market. 

Yet some do, and the buzzword to describe them is resilience. To talk about this term and no doubt inspire you, my guest today is Gary Garnier-Guisgand from Nespart. Together we talk about Kidywolf, a brand of toys and objects for children that launched at the end of 2019 and that despite successive crises has established itself well in several countries. A great example that with resilience, great results can happen.

In this episode we are talking about a well known system in the food industry, the Nutriscore. The concept is designed to help consumers identify healthy products. It is a visual attempt to simplify the nutritional value of food product.
