🥚 The EVERY Company secured a key patent for precision fermentation of egg proteins, focusing on recombinant ovalbumin The patent is wide-ranging, including innovations in ovalbumin with enhanced performance variants, multi-species sourcing, and various yeast and fungal production methods (Pichia, Trichoderma, Saccharomyces, and Aspergillus). The scope extends to multiple food product formats. This includes baked goods, meat substitutes, whipped cream, ice cream, meringues, and more, showing the protein's versatility in various industries. It highlights improvements in key functional properties of food, including texture (hardness, chewiness, springiness), and foam stability, and applies to both liquid and powder forms of protein ingredients.

Reflecting on the transformative year of 2023 in the alternative protein (Alt Protein) sector, it's evident that rationalisation has positioned us for a brighter future. This sentiment was echoed in insightful discussions in January hosted by Food Hack Where 20+ leading FoodTech VCs will invest next (foodhack.global) and the Global Food Institute (GFI) Alternative Protein Outlook – Investment Landscape going into 2024. At MycoSure, we’re excited to be aligned with a number of strategic trends outlined by industry experts: ·      Integration of Alt Protein with MedTech (food as medicine) likewise food waste and side streams as opportunities to develop cost-effective inputs and IP. ·      Emphasis on enabling technologies for quicker revenue generation and efficiency improvements. ·      Strategic partnerships for R&D and early-stage manufacturing to manage burn rates and secure offtake partners. ·      Clear capital utilisation plans and pathways to revenue, blending dilutive and non-dilutive funding. ·      Customer-centric approach focusing on price, taste, aroma, texture, and nutrition. ·      Commitment to addressing ESG and sustainability concerns, including local job creation and reducing environmental impact – with clear evidence The challenges of navigating the "year of the cleanse" have honed our focus and resource management. Despite the high-interest rate environment with capital scarce, we remain optimistic about the opportunities ahead. The insights from panel discussions such as these are invaluable when considering the future of FoodTech to ensure our alignment with industry trends and a disciplined approach positions us well for continued growth. #GFI #FoodHack #CSIR #alternativeprotein #proveg #sustainableagriculture #sustainablefoodsystems  

🌱 Alternative Proteins: A Retrospective and a Look Ahead 🌱 What a ride it’s been since the end of 2018! 🍔🌭 Since then, sales, products, and developments in the field of alternative proteins have grown rapidly. However, we've been observing a decline recently, as many investors have withdrawn from the market. Several concepts lacking sustainability are exiting this space, and there’s still a lot of market consolidation happening. Despite these challenges, optimism remains: Starting in 2025, we expect a renewed upswing, and we’re confident that the demand for consulting services on innovative products will significantly increase again. We look forward to the future with optimism and are excited about the developments to come! 💪 #neuevege #alternativeproteine #meatamorphosys #metrogermany #beyondmeat #innovation #zukunft #beratung https://lnkd.in/ejpEwx4E
