Pete Rowe - Deep Branch

Show notes

What if we could make protein from gases? Turns out: you can. In this episode, I talk to Pete, one of the co-founders and the CEO of Deep Branch, a pioneering biotechnology company. Pete and his team have developed an innovative platform for producing climate-friendly ingredients. By harnessing the power of microbes, they are revolutionizing the way we produce feed and food additives. Their sustainable solution utilizes carbon dioxide (CO2) and renewable hydrogen to convert them into valuable protein-rich ingredients. Pete shares his personal story of how he started the company, the challenges when constructing a pilot plant and the recipe to overcome those. Join me for an insightful and fun conversation and learn about microbes that spur the circular economy. Deep Branch
