Episode 2 features Andy Hamilton, CEO of the Icehouse in New Zealand. We talk about the thesis behind the new Tahua Fund, the scrappy, No. 8 Wire mentality of Kiwis, New Zealand’s relationship with Silicon Valley, and the New Zealand IPO market.

We also discuss two of the Tahua Fund’s investments, both of which I think you’ll find fascinating. The first is Avertana, a company that creates raw materials out of industrial waste. And the second is Sunfed Meats, which is creating synthetic meats from plant protein.
