Betsy Tse Email & Phone Number

I am a passionate foodie and technologist parlaying 30+ years in innovations and product development to advising companies in the food and beverage space. I was fortunate to have received wise guidance from others during my career so I also mentor startups and students as they embark on their food industry journeys. ► In my CPG roles, I launched innovations using my corporate and entrepreneurial experiences to tap into each working model’s strengths while avoiding their pitfalls. Managed all aspects of product development from strategy, concept development, product design, to commercialization while working with cross-functional teams in Marketing, Finance, Consumer Insights, Supply Chain, Regulatory, and Manufacturing. Built and led high performing teams to realize their full technical and creative potential. Integrated M&A brands into large legacy corporate environments.► Utilized market insights and deep understanding of consumers & trends to develop technical and innovation strategies that positioned natural health businesses for growth. Delivered complex, business critical, and transformative strategies.► As an technology scout, I connected disparate concepts by translating tangential technologies into business opportunities. Collaborated with start-ups and external partners to bring in novel solutions for complex challenges (plant proteins, clean label, food safety, manufacturing). For example, I am advising Turing Labs which is using AI to fundamentally change the decades-old product development process, thus reducing time and resources to launch consumer-centric products or to solve complex technical problems.Areas of Interest: Plant and Protein Based Beverages, Innovative & Functional Ingredients, Culinary & Lifestyle Trends, Health & Wellness, Product Development, Process Development, Technology Scouting, Artificial Intelligence, Advising, Teaching, Mentoring.
