James Reed· Host0:00

Welcome to All About Business with me, James Read, the podcast that covers everything about business, management, and leadership. Every episode, I sit down with different guests that bootstrap companies, masterminded investment models, or built a business empire. They're leaders in their field, and they're here to give you top insights and actionable advice so that you can apply their ideas to your own career or business venture. [upbeat music] Today on All About Business, I'm joined by Dr. Edward Mitchell, co-founder and chief technology officer of Arda Biomaterials, a startup developing animal and plastic-free leather alternatives made from waste grain produced by brewers and distillers. In this episode, we discuss the journey from scientist to entrepreneur, the challenges of building a deep tech startup, and the potential for new materials to transform the way products are made. Today on All About Business, I'm delighted to welcome Dr. Edward Mitchell, otherwise known as TJ Mitchell. Um, he's the founder, or I should say co-founder and chief technology officer of Arda Biomaterials. Um, this is a London-based biomaterials startup that creates animal-free and plastic-free leather alternatives, some of which are in front of you here on our table, TJ. Um, you've done this... I, I think this is a wonderful story.
