What happens when you mix Jurassic Park, The Avengers, and Indiana Jones in real life? You get Colossal. The inventions from Texas-based entrepreneur Ben Lamm’s companies may sound like a Hollywood movie, and not-surprisingly, Hollywood is flocking to one company in particular to get involved.
While there are numerous celebrities touting energy drinks, beauty lines, and selling apparel, there is generally a lot of white space between influencers and the deep-science technology companies that build the transformative solutions of tomorrow.
Colossal Biosciences, co-founded by Lamm and famed geneticist George Church, is coloring in that white space in more ways than one. First, by building a de-extinction company that sounds like a Hollywood Blockbuster, and second, by welcoming those in the entertainment industry who are inspired by the company’s bold vision driven by Lamm.
Investors of Colossal – which launched three years ago – include a who’s who of sport and entertainment. A-listers include Legendary Pictures founder and technology billionaire Thomas Tull as well as famed-filmmaker Peter Jackson. Advisors include notable figures like former Disney Executive and CEO of Candle Media Kevin Mayer and former HBO Chief Content Officer Kevin Reilly. And of course there are the celebrity investors, including NFL Super Bowl champion Tom Brady, socialite and DJ Paris Hilton, golfer Tiger Woods, business coaching guru Tony Robbins, and actors and animal activists like the Hemsworth brothers and Seth Green, to name a few.
