Abstract
Dr Tan Kok Kheng is a mycologist mad about mushrooms, and he's determined to spread his madness to the world. The humble mushroom may well turn out to be a big ticket item in the fast growing life sciences arena. A study by the National University of Singapore has already showed positive results. And Dr Tan is paving his way by buying a stake in a biotechnology company in Israel where he can tap the fermentation technology and large mushroom gene bank. From the lab to the farm, and now back to the lab for bigger, better things to come, Dr Tan has created a global business through his passion for mushrooms. Just how did he do it?.
