Lily Clarke’s High Morel LLC Gets Off the Ground with the University of Montana’s Blackstone LaunchPad as It Elevates Entrepreneurs
March 17, 2022 /
Lily Clarke never thought she’d be a business owner. She didn’t know anything about business. She’s a scientist, not an entrepreneur. But with the help of the University of Montana’s Blackstone LaunchPad and two grants, Clarke is the proud founder of her own company: High Morel LLC.
Clarke’s business was founded to explore the potential of mycoremediation — using mushrooms to decontaminate the environment. So far, she has worked on a mushroom mycelium filter that could clean hazardous chemicals out of water, allowing dirty water to become drinkable.
