The Plant Based Business Podcast Vevolution

Marc Coloma dropped out from high school to pursue full time activism. Now he's taken that passion and drive to co-found Heura, a 100% plant-based meat start-up, alongside fellow activist Bernat Añaños. Heura's mission is to create solutions that make the current food system obsolete and accelerate the transition to a world in which animals are out of the protein production equation. Today, Marc talks to Erik about the steep learning curve of entrepreneurship, Heura's Mediterranean culinary heritage, and how he is building consciousness for a future that has to arrive.
