Summary
This week, I chat to Nick Brown, founder of waterproofing brand Nikwax, the outdoor clothing brand Paramo and his latest venture Green Levers. We talk about fighting pushback from vested interests, embedding biomimicry principles in product design and how Paramo gave Colombian prostitutes not only an escape from the streets but a path to being company owners. Fascinating stuff! This episode is brought to you by Terra Infirma Ltd - Bringing Sustainability to Life Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
