The bio-printing of leather and meat: Andras Forgacs at TEDxMarin 2013

The Growing of Leather and Meat: A more cultured choice. This isn't so crazy. We raise and slaughter billions of animals to make our hamburgers and our handbags. What may be crazy is what we do today. Andras Forgacs is an Entrepreneur and venture investor in technology and life science. Andras co-founded Modern Meadow in 2011. Previously, he had also co-founded Organovo (NYSE: ONVO), a leader in tissue engineering which pioneered the use of 3D bio-printing to create human tissues for a range of medical applications. Organovo's bio-printer was named one of the top inventions of 2010 by Time Magazine and the company was recognized by MIT Technology Review on its TR50 list of most innovative companies for 2012. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
