As promised, Happy Planet is kicking off 2023 with an interview with Patrick Breeding, the young founder who says he’s building Maine’s next “unicorn.” And he’s doing it with a lobster based skincare product that is flying off the shelves.

His company is Marin Skincare, a Maine-based company founded by couple Patrick and his girlfriend Amber Boutiette who met at the University of Maine and whose lives changed when they got hooked up with The Lobster Institute.
In this episode we learn:

• How a personal tragedy can lead to a profound desire to do good
• How two university students stumbled into a skincare solution
• How science majors may be particularly well suited for entrepreneurship
• How grants can provide important early funding for startups
• Why it's nice to have a co-founder
• How this company is using PR to drive sales
• How this company is pushing off fundraising as long as they can.
