Deepak Rajmohan from Green Pod Labs: Biotech Solutions to minimise food waste

When we catch cold or feel ill, doctors prescribe anti-oxidants to boost our immune system. I'm sure many of us got our fill of these during covid. What if fruits and vegetables could boost their immune systems and stay fresh without refrigeration? 
My guest is Deepak from Green Pod Labs (https://greenpodlabs.com/), which  is attempting to extend the shelf life of fruits and vegetables by using biotechnology-driven solutions that keep fruits fresh at room temperature, reducing the need for cold storage. His solution could transform the Indian horticulture sector, where 30 percent of produce spoils due to a lack of affordable cold storage. We discuss the following topics in this episode:

 1.       Technology behind Green Pods’ solutions

 2.     Market potential

3.     Product development process and regulatory environment 

4.     Green Pods plans to scale
