Show Notes
On this week's show we talk to Adin Alai, CEO of 9Fiber, an early stage agri-tech company with a patented system to transform the waste streams of the hemp and cannabis industries into sustainable materials — fiber and cellulose — for applications in nine major markets, including textiles, paper, plastics and more.
He explains the how they developed their recycling system, how the company works with farmers, and how the coronavirus shutdown caused the company to make a creative pivot.
