Episode notes

We put aside ideas, run objective research, and then look back at the predictions. Most ideas can be predicted, but there's always at least one surprising one. For example, fish welfare and feed fortification were unexpected. Discovering the large problem of bone fractures in poultry led to the idea of adding micronutrients to feed, reducing pain. It was a surprising find with a lot of evidence. So sometimes the most compelling ideas are the most surprising ones.

In this episode, we spoke to Karolina from Charity Entrepreneurship (CE) about the new animal charities they want to incubate in their next program (starting February 2024), what the benefit of joining their charity incubator is, as well as how they select which charities to incubate.

If you’ve ever considered launching a charity to help animals, then this is the podcast for you! If you have a friend that has toyed with the possibility of starting their own project – then please do share this with them!
