Please Join us for our Winter Webinar Titled, "Alternative Proteins and Novel Foods!" January 17, 2024 1:00PM - 3:00 PM EST USA Background: The landscape of food production is changing. This change, driven by the desire for a more sustainable food supply and accelerated by advances in cellular biology, fermentation methods, and food science, has led to the development of novel protein sources. Emerging novel food products from these sources offer challenges for both producers and regulators to ensure their safety through accurate and fit-for-purpose analysis. Join us as we are bringing together various stakeholders – regulators, scientists, industry experts, and innovators – in a dynamic webinar designed to foster collaboration and achieve a common goal of establishing harmonized standards bolstering consumers’ confidence and supporting innovation. Our panel of experts will share their knowledge, experiences, and best practices to address the challenges facing this industry, followed by an open forum discussion. We would like to hear your thoughts, suggestions, challenges, and pain points, and identify solutions.
