Andrew D Ive

Founder / Managing General Partner, Big Idea Ventures

About

Andrew D Ive is the founder of Big Idea Ventures who brings Procter & Gamble brand management and Harvard Business School training to early-stage food-tech investing, positioning himself as someone who blends big-brand consumer marketing discipline with frontier technologies like cultured meat and precision fermentation. He runs a unique third fund focused on working with top US universities to create future-of-food companies in rural communities, and actively builds full value chains and ecosystems across key markets from New York to Singapore while championing culturally relevant, local alternative proteins rather than generic global solutions.
