Seth Goldman of Eat the Change on CPG Innovation

In this episode of Tech Transformation, we sit down with Seth Goldman, co-founder of Eat the Change, Honest Tea, and PLNT Burger, to break down some of the differences of innovating in a startup vs. a giant company.  We talk about what it’s like trying to balance conscious consumption with making a profit in the food space, and we discuss greenwashing in the consumer goods industry.

•What it’s like for Goldman being back in a more start-up, entrepreneurial role, and those "hindsight is 20/20" moments he’s drawing from 
•Why launching a kid’s version of Honest Tea was so impactful and how he’s using that perspective now 
•The differences between re-doing food and un-doing food, and what’s required for brands to be successful
