In an E&I Studio first, we welcome two guests onto the podcast to share details about the important work they're helping bring to the Central Valley. Dr. Pablo Paredes Romero welcomes Gloriamar Gámez and Gehad Elhanafy of BEAM Circular to explore the concept of the circular economy, where agricultural waste is looped back into the production cycle to create positive impact on the environment and job market.
This episode highlights the work of transforming organic waste into valuable bio-based products and the organization's pivotal initiatives like the Innovation Voucher Program and the Technical Assistance Program, which provide financial and technical support to foster local innovation.
Co-produced by the Warrior Entrepreneurship and Innovation program and the Office of Strategic Communications and Marketing at Stanislaus State. The E&I Studio is edited and recorded in the KCSS studios on the campus of Stanislaus State.
