In today's episode, I am speaking with Nirav Patel, founder and CEO of Framework. He is a former engineer at Oculus VR, Apple and Facebook. 
Framework is founded on the philosophy that the greatest positive environmental impact can come from creating products that last longer, thus generating less waste. The first 2 products are laptops which can be customized, upgraded, repaired and upcycled by the customer itself. 
Founded in 2019, Framework is now available in 9 countries. 
In this episode, we will talk about the inherent problem of hardware producers' business model to sell more products but at the same time trying to be more sustainable. 
We also discuss why he would like to half the market of the electronic consumer products and why this is a good thing.
