🔥 Check out GFI's first column for Nature Magazine on how the Asia-Pacific region is leading the charge in alternative protein development, investment, and scientific progress. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/eZZkkiGd “Meat production is long overdue for an upgrade,” say co-authors Ryan Huling, Wasamon Nutakul, PhD, Samuel Goh, and Doris Lee. “Asian innovation hubs have the capacity, workforce, and incentives to achieve taste parity for plant-based meat, resolve technical challenges, and take cultivated meat from test kitchens to supermarkets around the world.” While harnessing the full potential benefits of #alternativeproteins is both a scientific and a commercial challenge, many countries in the region are leaning in with government funding initiatives to accelerate innovation in the field. Between 2020 and 2023, researchers in the Asia-Pacific region published more than 400 papers aimed at closing alternative protein knowledge gaps—nearly twice the U.S. scientific output in the same period. In total, Singapore has invested 24 times as much public funding as a percentage of its gross domestic product into protein innovation as the United States has. "Now that Asia’s political leaders have embraced the ‘what’ and ‘why’ of alternative proteins, scientists have been tasked with answering the ‘how’," add the column's co-authors.

🇳🇱 Dutch company Meatable has been awarded €7.6 million as part of the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO) Innovation program to advance cultivated meat production. Learn more 👉 https://bit.ly/3zGAUkA RVO’s Innovation Credits are designed to support “innovative development projects with considerable technological risks and excellent market prospects”. It's great to see this kind of public investment! 👏 The RVO Innovation credit will be used to further improve the company's productivity and reduce production costs as they move toward commercialization of their #cultivatedmeat products. Meatable also said they plan to partner with the conventional meat industry in order to roll out cultivated meat products at scale.

Plant-based chicken producer Rebellyous Foods has deployed a new system that they say will significantly lower manufacturing costs and improve product quality—two critical industry barriers. 👉 https://bit.ly/47GrySB Partnering with RMS Foods, Inc., the Mock 2 Production System is a fully continuous, automated, and chilled substrate dough processing system capable of producing a wide range of plant-based meat products at volumes of 2,500 to 5,000 lbs per hour on a single processing line. "Our Mock 2 technology is the key to meeting the unmet demand for delicious, affordable plant-based options," said Christie Lagally, founder and CEO of Rebellyous Foods. While product development and enhancement opportunities remain in the still-developing plant-based meat category, it's exciting to see Rebellyous Foods address these challenges head-on and move the plant-based meat industry forward!

🇯🇵 We’re excited to announce that GFI has selected Japan as the location for our newest nonprofit entity! Why Japan? Asia accounts for more than half of all protein consumption growth so far this century — and the opportunity for a large scale transformation in the regional protein supply has never been greater. Japan is the world’s fourth largest economy, has a world-leading advanced research and manufacturing sector and has the potential to revolutionize alternative proteins in the way we’ve seen EVs and solar revolutionize the transportation and energy sectors. GFI’s arrival in Japan has been a long time coming and represents our latest move to lean in on Asia as an epicentre of alternative protein innovation.

From crop protein fractions that are well-suited for plant-based meat to amino acids and peptides primed for use in cell culture media, many food industry sidestreams have the potential to be upcycled into ingredients for alternative protein products. In recognition of the International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste (September 29), our scitech analysis manager Amanda Bess wrote about the important role alternative proteins can play in combatting food loss and waste.
