Process Development & Scale up

Hello!

My name is Gidi and I’m a Biotechnology Engineer with an MSc in Biochemistry and approximately 20 years of extensive experience in process development and production scale-up.
My expertise spans a wide range of processes, both in Israel and abroad, including chemical reactions, precision fermentation (USP and DSP), crystallization and precipitation, centrifugal separation and filtration (dead end, TFF, etc.), herbal extractions, cleaning processes, and various drying and grinding (including wet milling) techniques, and more.

Industry Expertise
I bring a wealth of accumulated knowledge from diverse sectors, including:

Chemical and Pharmaceutical industries.

Precise fermentation and Cultivated Meat production.

Medical Devices and Cosmetics.

Food and Dietary Supplements.

Innovation and Problem Solving.

I possess a proven track record of innovation and patent creation across multiple technologies. My core strength lies in identifying the optimal technology for a specific process and implementing it effectively and operationally.

In all cases where I was tasked with developing new technology to solve production bottlenecks, I successfully identified existing, proven technologies and adapted them to the specific process. This strategic approach has consistently:

Significantly shortened development timelines. You perform adjustments to existing technology instead of developing a new one.

Simplified the development process.

Resulted in substantial cost savings.

Economic Feasibility and Strategy
Beyond the technical scope, I offer deep insights into the economic feasibility of new products. I can accurately evaluate production processes, required infrastructure, and the competitive landscape from an early stage. This allows for the precise calibration of both the product and the manufacturing workflow to ensure long-term commercial viability.
