Carrie Chan: There Are Plenty More Fish In The Lab
Carrie Chan is CEO and Co-founder of Avant Meats, a cultivated meat technology company based in Hong Kong. Carrie is a seasoned business leader with a passion for the environment, particularly for the impact of our food supply chains on the planet. After two decades of experience in delivering major real estate developments, and after becoming vegan, she turned her business acumen and her purpose to finding a solution to saving the fish in our oceans.
Seafood is an important source of animal protein for China's inhabitants, as well as of great cultural importance. While there has been a movement to sustainable fish farming, Carrie and her team do not think it is enough. With their product, they want to show it is possible to serve people sustainable meat and protein without slaughtering animals.
Avant Meats is China’s only cell-based food company, but it is far from the only company in this space globally. If it were up to business, these products would already be available on our supermarket shelves, but regulatory approval is still necessary to get there. Listen as Carrie talks about what it takes to build a business solving a global problem, in a space where the product precedes an existing market.
