Elaine Siu

Elaine is a veteran in the alternative proteins space, having served in multiple roles in pioneering organisations to advance solutions that mitigate the current challenges associated with our food system.

Elaine was the founding managing director of Good Food Institute APAC, and then the chief innovation officer of Material Innovation Initiative. Both organisations played a major role incubating new sectors and ecosystems that reimagine animal-based products and supply alternatives, including cellular agriculture. Elaine is currently pursuing a PhD at King’s College London to research and reflect on industry incubation strategies that can create better alternatives for the world.

Prior to dedicating her second career to helping animals, Elaine was a solicitor for over a decade specialising in IPOs, M&As, financial structured products and investment funds.
