Hamutal Yitzhak, CEO of Else Nutrition claimed the number one spot in World Biz Magazine’s list of Top 100 Innovation CEOs. Known for “reshaping infant nutrition,” Yitzhak’s company has developed the first plant-based, dairy-free, and soy-free baby formula, which launched in March 2021.

In addition to factoring in commercial insight and market integrity, the award reviewed product, service, functional, strategic, and managerial innovation. Receiving over 40,000 entries, Editor in Chief Mike Walters says that “to be selected #1 is a testament to Hamutal’s contributions to raising standards in infant and child nutrition. In the face of overwhelming barriers to entry, she has brought a real alternative to the market; one that is cleaner, healthier, and better for the environment. Else Nutrition has successfully disrupted its space and is on the cusp of global expansion, providing an exciting opportunity for investors.”
