He was named an MIT Innovator Under 35 Europe and a World IP Review Leader for his contributions to developing numerous embeddedartificial intelligence to fight food waste. He is also a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts (RSA).Born on December 13, 1990, in Kolkata, India, Somdip Dey is the only child of a painter mother, Soma Dey, and a commercial artist father, Sudip Dey.

In 2013, he moved to the U.K. to pursue master's study and while pursuing his MSc at the University of Manchester in 2014, his parents had a car accident that made him the family's sole breadwinner.

It won the 3Scale API Award at the Koding's 2014 Global Hackathon & inspired entrepreneurs to develop similar solutions. In 2020, Dey co-founded Nosh Technologies, which developed an AI-powered food management app to reduce food waste in the household, and Dey also assumed the role of CEO of the company.

Served® Hard Seltzer — The UK's go-to premium hard seltzer brand. Find us in Selfridges, Planet Organic, As Nature Intended, Teals, Eat 17 stores as well as some of the UK's leading premium bars, restaurants and hotels. Our journey started as a result of two things. The first being the realisation that the majority of alcoholic drinks on offer to us were fullto the brim with cheap, artificial flavours and packed with sugar and calories. The second was our growing determination to find a way to avoid having to choose between a healthy lifestyle and enjoying a drink with friends.So we decided to do something about it and created Served. A delicious, refreshing lower-ABV drink. Made by infusing fresh wonky fruit, with natural spring water and our ultra-pure, four-times distilled, ServedPured™ gluten-free alcohol (we know that’s a mouthful, but it’s worth it).The result? A crisp, light flavour, with a touch of natural sweetness. No sugar, no carbs, no sweeteners, no-nonsense.Pure Flavour. Pure Spirit. Pure in Every Sense.
