Dr. Lee Recht & Didier Toubia are my guests on episode 30 of Inside Ideas with Marc Buckley.
Lee’s main passion and dedication lie between sustainability and innovation with a personal devotion to promote resilience in the global food systems. Dr. Recht is Currently Head of Sustainability at Aleph Farms, an Israeli-based food company that paves the cultivated meat path as leader of a global sustainable food ecosystem, working passionately to grow delicious, real beef steaks from the cells of living cows. Her recent positions include working with the Global 1000 companies, leading NGOs, and high-level government officials from around the world, building them tailor-made ways to help identify and implement innovative solutions according to the strategies and efforts.
Didier is the Co-Founder and CEO of Aleph Farms, a cultivated meat company that is shaping the future of food by growing slaughter-free beef steaks directly from cow cells, preserving natural resources, and avoiding the use of antibiotics. Prior to Aleph Farms, Didier co-founded and led IceCure, which went public in 2010, and served as the CEO of NLT Spine, which was acquired by SeaSpine in 2016. Didier was trained as a Food Engineer and Biologist and holds a joint executive MBA from Kellogg and Recanati. He is also co-Founder of BlueTree and Yeap.
