About the Initiators

Archen Biotech

Zürich

I’m Bruce America, founder of Archen Biotech in Zurich, and I’ve spent my career working with natural fibers: hemp, bamboo, and silk. When I started researching what it would take to actually repair a damaged nerve, I came across something remarkable: spider silk. Not synthetic spider silk from a lab, but the real thing, the dragline thread that a Nephila spider spins in the wild.
