The Team
- Our Founder, Sudarshan Gangrade, is also the Co-Founder of LeanScience, a boutique Diet and Fat Loss consulting firm that helps people become leaner through a low-carb lifestyle. The company counts some of the biggest names in the corporate world as its clients.
- Our Nutritionist has created customized eating plans for hundreds of clients from different walks of life and time zones.
- Our Food Technologist is one of the most prolific creators of commercially successful food products in the country.
All of us saw clients (and occasionally ourselves) succumb and undo the discipline of an entire day or week in a single session. We decided to make what we wanted to eat, and suggest others to eat. Like many things, Protein Chef was also born out of necessity.
An engineer from IIT-Kharagpur, Sudarshan did his MBA from IIM-Bangalore. Since then, he has worked in many startups and founded the boutique Health consulting firm - LeanScience. As the CMO at Ola, Sudarshan helped make Ola a household name and grew from a few thousand rides a day to a million in less than 2 years.
Sudarshan has always had a strong interest in serving the country and transforming the way social services are administered to residents of India. A few years back, he quit his job and joined as a full-time volunteer in Nandan Nilekani’s team, which was building the Aadhaar project. He wanted to contribute to a project that he believes would transform the way social services are administered to residents of India.
He also worked with a team and built Road Map, an app that helps map the potholes on the roads and provides the data to the government for improving road quality.
An active sportsperson, he co-founded LeanScience in his most recent stint. LeanScience is an extremely successful boutique Diet and Fat Loss Consulting organization that counts among the top corporate veterans of India as its clients.
He was also well aware of the market's requirement for the correct proteins related products. As a result, his entrepreneurial spirit and passion to create the ideal protein powder for Indians came together perfectly in Protein Chef.
