# Sustainable Protein: How Tech and Finance are Disrupting and Innovating for the Future

**Date**: Monday, November 26, 2018
**Time**: 6:00 PM - 8:30 PM EDT
*\*By invitation only*

As factory farming receives more and more attention for its impact on the environment and animal welfare, some businesses have turned toward sustainable protein. Join the NYU Stern [Center for Sustainable Business](http://www.stern.nyu.edu/experience-stern/about/departments-centers-initiatives/centers-of-research/center-sustainable-business), the NYU Department of Environmental Studies and the Environmental Humanities Initiative and learn about the exciting new world and investor opportunities of sustainable protein, including new plant-based seafood, plant-based burgers that 'bleed,' pea milk and nut cheeses. The evening will consist of a one-hour panel featuring industry thought leaders followed by a networking event that includes samples of some of the more popular and innovative protein-rich products — and the chance to learn more about this promising new space.

Panelists include: - **Chris Kerr**, co-CEO and chair, Good Catch
- **Euripides Pelekanos**, CEO and founder, Bareburger
- **Jody Rasch** (MBA '83), managing trustee, VegInvest
- **Rosie Wardle**, investor engagement, FAIRR
