UBS Global Visionaries: Rodrigo Garcia Gonzalez and Pierre Paslier of Notpla

This week we are joined by two more of the inspirational thought leaders and innovators that UBS supports and celebrates through its Global Visionaries programme. This time it’s the turn of Rodrigo Garcia Gonzalez and Pierre Paslier of Notpla. Notpla is a sustainable start-up whose mission is to eliminate waste and tackle plastic pollution by developing packaging that disappears naturally after use. Notpla is made from one of nature’s finest renewable resources: brown seaweed. This grows up to 1 metre per day, doesn’t compete with food crops, doesn’t need fresh water or fertiliser and actively de-acidifies the world’s oceans.
