Vollebak: why the world needs products from the future, now

In this episode of the Evolving Leader podcast, co-hosts Jean Gomes and Scott Allender talk to Vollebak co-founder Steve Tidball. Since 2015, Steve and his (co-founder) brother Nick have been “using science and technology to create clothing that no-one else can or will”, they create (award winning) clothes from the future. So, what might a collection of clothes from the future include? Taking just two examples from the Vollebak collection, consider the indestructible puffer (made from Dyneema which is the strongest fibre known to man today), or the deep sleep cocoon which was built ahead of the first missions to Mars, with a design based on the protective exoskeleton of the woodlouse.

If you’re interested in the mindset of an entrepreneur, sit back and enjoy.
