His session will explore how advances in alternative proteins can help produce the foods people love with far less land\, water\, and emissions—while strengthening food security and supporting more resilient economies. \n\n\n\nBringing together researchers\, startups\, investors\, policymakers\, and industry leaders\, the Festival is designed for serious conversations and real momentum. Expect candid discussion\, fresh thinking\, and a close look at the solutions already moving from breakthrough to scale. \n\n\n\n\n\nEvent location\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGFI speaker\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBruce Friedrich\n\n\n\nPRESIDENT AND FOUNDER\, GFI \n\n\n\nBruce has penned op-eds for the Wall Street Journal\, Foreign Policy\, Nature Food\, Wired\, and many other publications. He has represented GFI on the Ezra Klein Show\, Making Sense (Sam Harris)\, TED Radio Hour\, New Yorker Radio Hour\, PBS News Hour\, and a variety of other podcasts and TV programs. Bruce’s TED talk has been viewed almost 2.5 million times and translated into 30 languages. \n\n\n\nNature featured Bruce’s 2026 book Meat as one of its five “best science picks\,” and Publishers Weekly selected Meat as one of the 10 best new releases in science\, writing: “This packed account makes food science feel like an urgent and essential undertaking.” \n\n\n\nThe book has also received praise from Nobel Laureate in economics Michael Kremer\, primatologist Jane Goodall\, science fiction master Kim Stanley Robinson\, and CSIS director of global food and water security Caitlin Welsh\, who penned the foreword. Says Welsh: “This book explains the imperative to transform our food systems\, and lays out a game plan to get us there…. Meat is as important as it is enjoyable.” \n\n\n\nFind out more on the book’s website\, MeatBook.org. \n\n\n\nBruce graduated magna cum laude from Georgetown Law and also holds degrees from Johns Hopkins University\, the London School of Economics\, and Grinnell College. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUpcoming events\n\n\n\nView all events\n\n\n\n\n	\n															\n								\n		\n										\n						\n		\n			\n								\n							\n													May 21\, 2026\n																\n								Virtual Event\n																			\n				\n				\n					The Business of Alt Protein: What founders need to know about M&A for mission-driven companies\n				\n				\n							\n				Join GFI for a Business of Alt Protein webinar featuring a presentation from Tuck Advisors on mergers and acquisitions for… \n\n			\n								\n										\n								\n		\n										\n						\n		\n			\n								\n							\n													May 28\, 2026\n																\n								Virtual Event\n																			\n				\n				\n					The Science of Alt Protein: Nature and nurture—Cell lines and media\n				\n				\n							\n				Discover opportunities for the convergent development of both cell lines and media for cultivated meat. \n\n			\n								\n										\n								\n		\n									\n		\n			\n								\n							\n													June 8\, 2026\n											Marché Bonsecours\n																	\n				\n				\n					2026 Climate Solutions Prize Festival\n				\n				\n							\n				Bruce Friedrich joins the Climate Solutions Prize Festival to explore why the future of climate action must include the future…
