Sam Glickstein

CEO, Biotrophics

Sam’s career and passion has been rooted in making agriculture and aquaculture more sustainable. In 2017 he started Biotrophics, a company that was first working with insects as a sustainable protein for animal feeds. Fast forward to now, and Biotrophics has a proprietary platform that can design and express recombinant proteins in yeast and insects to combat diseases and pests in livestock rearing. Biotrophics’ oral treatments have a 6-18 month development time vs. the 5-10 year traditional vaccine development timeline. Biotrophics’ first products involve salmon protection in open ocean aquaculture.
