During his time in academia, Vinayaka Srinivas began thinking about how he could have a more tangible and direct impact on the world and people’s lives. Given his technical background in stem cell biology, cultivated meat presented itself as an area of perfect opportunity to make this difference. Vin is now the cofounder and CEO of Singapore-based startup Gaia Foods, Southeast Asia’s first cultivated red meat company. In this episode we talk with Vin about why he decided to focus on red meat, as well as the technological approach to creating structured products. We also discuss the team’s experience in setting up their first lab, the importance of a balanced research approach, future steps for the company plus more.
