SUMMARY
Amy Novogratz, Founder & Managing Partner of Aqua Spark, fervidly details her vision to disrupt the fastest growing food industry in the world, aquaculture. She talks about the need for clarity around where our food comes from, especially in the aquaculture industry where, currently, the whole sector is out of sight. Amy seeks to realize the greatest potential in an industry that can be revolutionary to our food systems if care and transparency are embedded in every layer of production from feed and disease to technology. Amy’s passion, innovation, and creativity are at the core of her efforts to restore and reinvigorate an industry that has been long overlooked.
