Red Thread Series #1: Culture Wars
In late July, we launched our first Red Thread project: Red Thread Series, a future-focused network bringing together remarkable leaders in business, science, technology, and culture to explore emerging threads that are radically transforming the way we work and live. Our first gathering, Culture Wars, focused on a topic you may have heard in passing: biofabrication and culturing. That is, producing biological material without using animals.
In recent years, what was once confined to science fiction is slowly becoming a reality, with ramifications for everything from commerce to culture. We brought together a specially curated group of the most inspiring people we know to provide unique insights into the implications, controversies, and potential of biofabrication. Over three hours, we examined the multi-faceted implications of this burgeoning industry. Everyone left with new insights, new friends, and the desire for more. Stay tuned for our next Red Thread gathering!
