Why Every Composite Innovation Needs a Better Story: Interview with Yatine Boodhoo of Thermoforged Jul 14, 2026

Show notes

On this episode, Yatine Boodhoo, founder of ThermoForged, joins the podcast. As an engineer, Yatine has built his career around advanced composites, developing a deep, hands-on expertise in thermoplastic materials as they’ve gained momentum. Along the way, he discovered that the most groundbreaking technologies rarely fail due to lack of performance. They fail because people don’t understand them.

That realization led him to launch ThermoForged, a platform dedicated to telling the stories behind the innovations shaping the future of composites. Through technical storytelling and high-quality video, Yatine helps engineers, manufacturers, and technology leaders communicate complex ideas in ways that are engaging and compelling.

Today, his work sits at the intersection of engineering, storytelling, and public speaking, helping companies translate sophisticated technologies into messages that resonate with customers, investors, and industry leaders alike.
