SMU alumni Solomon Poon and Ryan Foo came up with DrinkAid, a supplement in a pill form that can be taken before or after drinking, to help reduce the Asian flush. The idea came about after they connected over their shared experience of turning red after drinking and a low tolerance for alcohol consumption. After experimenting on themselves for several months using different permutations and ratios of ingredients, they came up with a prototype for DrinkAid at the end of last year. With the prototype, the project was further developed under SMU's Business Innovations Generator - an equity-free incubation programme managed by the University's Institute of Innovation and Entrepreneurship, for start-ups in their early stages to refine their product and business plans.
