Could artificial meat be the new normal? In this episode of the Next Stage, we learn from three entrepreneurs working to create meat alternatives using plants, fungi, and cell cultivation.
They discuss the products and technologies that enable them to replicate the taste, texture and nutrition of conventional meat, as well as the challenges involved in scaling up production.
The founders share their visions for making alt meat ubiquitous, affordable, and enthusiastically adopted by meat-eaters â all in order to significantly reduce the climate and health impacts of our meat consumption.
With several companies poised to launch artificial meat products commercially in the next year, we may soon witness these meatless options become the default choice for consumers.

Is the tech industry ignoring an untapped resource by excluding people with criminal records?
People with criminal records are often shut out of the labour market. But some companies have recognised that so-called 'second chance' and 'fair chance' hiring can help them find more workers.
In this episode of the Next Stage podcast, Checkr co-founder and CEO Daniel Yanisse joins Sojourner Elleby, editorial producer at Bloomberg Quicktake, to find out just how much people with criminal records have to offer businesses and society.
Checkr practises what it preaches. According to Daniel, â[Checkr] started hiring people directly from prison about five or six years ago. And when we gave them some opportunities, they really succeeded, flourished and became our best employees.â

How are generative AI tools like ChatGPT transforming education? We hear horror stories of students using these tools to write entire essays and pass them off as their own. But, these education experts think there is potential for positive applications.
From making personalised learning widely accessible to providing feedback loops for students, Joshua Wöhle, co-founder and CEO of edtech startup Milestone, thinks GenAI has a place in the classroom.
But these experts also caution about maintaining human connection in classrooms (rather than replacing facetime with AI tutors) and teaching AI literacy.
While the K-12 space (5-18 year olds) may need more careful oversight, they see huge potential for AI to help train skills such as communication, provide interactive learning, and ultimately revolutionise education.
Mindstone CEO Joshua Wöhle, Roots of Empathy founder Mary Gordon, and ApplyBoard co-founder and CEO Meti Basiri were in conversation with freelance technology journalist Alyssa Newcomb on Future Societies at Collision 2023.
