Better Dairy

What an inspiring evening! 🎉 Better Dairy was thrilled to join industry leaders and EU officials at a special networking reception hosted by Food Fermentation Europe focused on driving collaboration in biotech, modern fermentation, and agriculture. Together, we explored the future of sustainable food systems in the EU, with a spotlight on the upcoming European Biotech Act and its potential to champion innovations like fermentation. Thanks to all who made it a night to remember! 🌍💪

🎃 Spooky season is in full swing at Better Dairy! 🎃 We had an absolute blast at our annual Halloween festivities, complete with some pumpkin carving fun! From spooktacular decs to pumpkin masterpieces, everyone brought their A-game. 👻🎨 It’s always amazing to see our team’s imagination and energy – whether we’re working in the lab on innovation or carving out Halloween fun. 🧡🍂 Swipe through to see some of the highlights, and Happy Halloween from the Better Dairy team! #BetterDairy #FutureOfFood #HalloweenFun #BetterTogether 🎉🧙♀️

We had a fantastic time repping novel food technologies on a panel at The Times Earth Summit last week! Our Director of Strategy & Partnerships Trishala Bopanna joined fellow industry thought leaders Henry Dimbleby, Marija Rompani and Jack Watts to talk about the changes necessary in the food industry to tackle carbon emissions. 🌍💬 We said it there and we will say it again- our world's food system is unsustainable and senseless. The UK has the opportunity to rethink how it allocates its spending and where to invest to tackle food insecurity that increasingly extreme and unpredictable weather brings. ⚡ ✨ Novel food technologies like precision fermentation can provide a steady food supply while reducing water use by over 60% and land use and green house gas emissions by over 90% compared to traditional dairy production. 🙌🐄 43% of the UK's electricity now comes from renewable sources, following £300bn of public and private investment since 2010. We will continue to push for a similar approach to drive a more sustainable food system in the UK! 💸 #BetterDairy #TheTimes #FoodSystemChange #Sustainability #PrecisionFermentation

🎟️ Save the Date for #FFE’s Policy Reception! 🎟️ As a proud member of @Food Fermentation Europe, we invite you to join us on 5 November in Brussels to explore the synergies between modern fermentation, agriculture, and the bioeconomy. Discover how this combination can enhance the EU’s competitiveness! 🌱 Our very own Jevan Nagarajah, who serves as President of FFE, will be speaking at the event. It will be a great opportunity to connect with policymakers and industry leaders as we discuss how innovation meets tradition in the food sector and helps propel the EU toward a more sustainable future. Hope to see you there!

Grateful for our friends at Happiness Capital and their continued support, right from our seed round! 𓇢🌱🧀

🌍 We're looking forward to attending The Times Earth Summit, taking place in London on Tuesday, 15 October! 🌿✨ Our Director of Strategy & Partnerships, Trishala Bopanna, will be speaking alongside Henry Dimbleby (former government advisor and author of the National Food Strategy) and Jack Watts (Sustainability Group Lead, National Farmers Union) about what appetite there is for the system change necessary in the food and agriculture industry to tackle carbon emissions. 🌾🌱⚡ We're also very much looking forward to hearing from Hannah Jones (CEO, The Earthshot Prize), Chris Stark (Head of Mission Control, Clean Power 2030), and a host of other sustainability experts at the summit. 🔋🌍💬 🎟️ You can purchase tickets for the summit through this link: https://buff.ly/4eD7GT5 See you there! 🙌✨ #TheTimesEarthSummit2024 #Sustainability #ClimateAction #NetZero #GreenFuture #FoodSystems #BetterDairy

🌍 Last week, we had the privilege of representing the precision fermentation industry in a closed-door session with the UK's Climate Change Committee (CCC). The CCC, as the government’s independent advisor on climate issues, is in the process of preparing its advice for the Seventh Carbon Budget (2038-2042), including updated strategies for the UK’s pathway to Net Zero. Our discussions focused on the role of diet change and how alternative proteins can help reduce meat and dairy consumption, contributing to a more sustainable future. The session, held at the John Innes Centre in Norwich, highlighted both the challenges and opportunities for alternative proteins in supporting climate goals. It was inspiring to be part of such a forward-looking conversation with other change-making companies, aiming to reshape our food systems for the better. 🌱🚀 #NetZero #ClimateAction #AlternativeProteins #PrecisionFermentation #BetterDairy

Absolutely loved being at Future Food-Tech! 🌟 Our Chief Scientific Officer David Nunn especially enjoyed moderating a panel on a topic that’s incredibly important to Better Dairy and the entire fermentation industry: Bioprocessing Innovations that can make processes cheaper and scalable. Breaking through on bioprocessing is the key to getting our products into more hands, at affordable prices and at mass scale. 🌍🧀 It's all about making a sustainable future truly accessible for everyone. Huge thanks to everyone who joined the conversation and to Future Food-Tech for being a hub of such inspiring ideas! 🚀 Let’s keep pushing the boundaries together! #FutureFoodTech #BetterDairy #Fermentation #Bioprocessing #FoodTech #SustainableFuture #Innovation

Last Friday we hung up our lab coats to bond as a team on our Annual Away Day! Aside from our regular drinks and socials in and around our Hackney Wick HQ, we really value the opportunity to pause for the day, let our hair down and unwind with great food & drink, music, and activities in the great outdoors.  This year, Elsewhere-Offsites hosted us in Old Amersham where we spent the day pancake making, air rifling, vehicle manoeuvring, golfing, shooting arrows, cheese and wine tasting, having fire-side chats, dancing and the list goes on… We cannot wait for the next one! If you want to be part of our team and perhaps join us for the next Aways Day, check us out and keep in touch via our careers page: https://lnkd.in/efpXQbax 🌸 🌳 🐝 🍸 🧀 #BetterDairy #FutureOfFood #Fun 

Fermentation is at the heart of a more sustainable food system, and Better Dairy is proud to be a active member of Food Fermentation Europe (FFE). Together with other game-changers in the fermentation industry, we are pushing for the policy and regulatory frameworks that will help scale these solutions across the EU. By leveraging cutting-edge technologies like precision fermentation and biomass fermentation, FFE members are driving the much-needed transformation in the food industry, creating alternatives that not only replicate taste and nutrition but also dramatically reduce environmental impact. 🌿🧀 Together, we’re moving towards a more sustainable and resilient future! 💪 #FoodFermentationEurope #SustainableDairy #BetterDairy #FutureOfFood #FoodTech #EUFoodPolicy
