Amadeus Driando Ahnan-Winarno, PhD (a.k.a "Dr. Driando, The Tempeh Doctor") is a food sciencepreneur and activist with a life mission of giving more people access to nutritious, sustainable, and affordable foods.

Amadeus Driando Ahnan-Winarno, PhD (a.k.a "Dr. Driando, The Tempeh Doctor") is a food sciencepreneur and activist with a life mission of giving more people access to nutritious, sustainable, and affordable foods. This mission came due to his family’s cancer history, the world’s most polluted river close to his hometown, and witnessing childhood malnutrition firsthand. He does it by innovating on and promoting tempeh and tempeh fermentation, which originated in Indonesia 400+ years ago. In 2014, Dr. Driando co-founded the world's largest tempeh network, the Indonesian Tempe Movement, which now has involved representatives from 24 countries. In 2018, Dr. Driando co-founded the UK's mainstream tempeh brand, Better Nature. Since pursuing his PhD in Food Science at the University of Massachusetts Amherst (then #1 in the US according to US News and World Report), Dr. Driando has received 33 national and international awards for his works in tempeh fermentation, food science, entrepreneurship, and science communication. Dr. Driando first-authored "The Tempeh Bible”, i.e. the world's most updated manuscript on tempeh and tempeh fermentation, published in CRFSFS, then the world's #1 non-annual food science journal according to Scopus. Dr. Driando has invented 4 patents and helped launch 10 products in the European and Middle-Eastern markets. To further promote tempeh, he has run 5 out of the 6 World Major Marathons and published 22 songs on global music platforms. He is currently pursuing his MBA on social entrepreneurship at the University of Oxford on top of working at Better Nature.
