CO-FOUNDER AND CHIEF SCIENTIFIC OFFICER, SHIOK MEATS
Location: Singapore
Driven by a desire to circumvent the unsustainable shrimp industry, Ling Ka Yi and her business partner Sandhya Sriram founded Shiok Meats to create a lab-grown alternative. The Singapore-based company aims to disrupt the billion-dollar crustacean market with the world’s first clean shrimp, produced without cruelty. It recently completed a US$4.6 million seed funding round, and will commercially launch its first product, Shiok Shrimp, in 2022.
