Additionally, we are announcing the launch our innovative upcycling service, MycoPrime™. The concept combines the power of data science, fermentation technology and artificial intelligence to drive its upcycling services with food industry partners. The establishment of MycoPrime™ and the firm's entry into the Japanese market distinguishes NoMy from other mycoprotein companies, by providing scalable and licensable end-to-end upcycling services that leverages its core competence and IP for developing solutions globally. Why Japan? Besides being a huge market, Japan has a thousand year history using fermentation to transform foods (think sake, miso, soy sauce). Together with its partners, we are writing a new chapter using fungal fermentation to transform food systems. Combining our expertise in gastronomy and sustainability, we are making the food system more resilient AND delicious in the rich food culture of Japan, and beyond. More partnerships in Japan are still confidential and will be announced soon! 頑張ります! #NoMyJapan #MycoPrime #Upcycling #Mycelium #FoodInnovation #SustainableFuture #Deliciousness
