Green shoots are emerging for industrial biomanufacturing funding, with The Better Meat Co. being the latest to receive a Department of Defense grant to accelerate their scale-up and Onego Bio benefitting from more than $50 million private and public funding in 2024. Combined with successful product and retail expansions, plus a steady wave of strategic partnerships, most recently between Superbrewed Food and Fonterra, this has underscored proof-of-concept and de-risking of fermentation-enabled alternative protein technology.

The boutique 5th Fermentation-Enabled Alternative Protein Summit returns to San Francisco, dedicated to supporting 170+ scientific and strategic leaders from all industry stakeholders through data-backed case studies and premium networking, including food techs, CPG and ingredient provider innovation and R&D decision makers, government representative, investors, and technology enablers.

Leave with a viable vision on how to achieve the trifecta of cost parity, quality, and taste through scale-enabling research and development strategies, global infrastructure development, and effective partnering to unlock your share of this burgeoning market and ensure food categories are successfully diversified with the next generation of ingredients.
