This episode brings us together with Majbritt Byskov-Bridges from Alver, an startup that has developed and brought to market one of the healthiest, tastiest and most sustainable source of protein and nutrients on the planet, that in the future might very well replace most of the meat we consume today. Their innovation is a micro algae called Golden Chlorella, that compared to the traditional algae products you know, is not a pill with a bright green color and a strong smell - It’s golden and subtle in taste while still bursting with life essential nutrients. The startup aims to create food products that fit easily into your everyday life, boosted with Golden Chlorella, and they have already launched pasta, soups, sauces and many more delicious food on their website.
Majbritt came from a corporate background working for big companies in different field, and is the startup COO. In our conversation Majbritt shared how it all started out, how the jump from working at a big company to working in a startup worked out for her, and much more.
