【代替タンパク｜各国の政策・規制比較】#145 ☑︎English follows JP 世界10か国の代替タンパクに関わる政策・規制を比較・スコア化 😮 記事によると、フードテックのホットスポットとして知られるシンガポール、北米（カナダ・米国）、イスラエルは高得点で上位。中国、韓国、オーストラリアなどAPAC地域は下位でした。市場の大きさを考えると北米が有望な地域と言えるでしょうか。 まとめられた表を見ると、ほとんどの国が国家戦略の中に代替タンパク開発を組み込み、R&D支援は行っているようですが、規制が厳格な地域では製品がローンチできず、市場開発が出遅れてしまっているのは明らかです。 自国内での展開が厳しいスタートアップは、市場がスピーディに開拓されている地域に進出して、プロダクトをローンチし、改善していく必要がありますね 🤔 【Comparison of Alternative Protein Policies and Regulations in Various Countries】 #145 Comparison and scoring of policies and regulations related to alternative proteins in 10 countries worldwide 😮 According to the article, Singapore, North America (Canada and the United States), and Israel, known as hotspots for food tech, scored high and ranked at the top. APAC area such as China, South Korea, Australia was at the bottom. Considering the market size, North America could be seen as a promising region. Looking at the summarized table, it appears that most countries have incorporated alternative protein development into their national strategies and are providing R&D support. However, in regions with strict regulations, it is clear that products cannot be launched, and market development is delayed. Startups facing difficulties in domestic expansion need to enter regions where markets are being rapidly developed, launch their products, and continue to improve them 🤔 #foodtech #alternativeprotein #regulation #policy #フードテック ＃代替タンパク https://lnkd.in/gX553xeF

A lot of #Asian cuisines are vegetarian-based. However, meat consumption is deeply rooted in the culture, especially in Eastern Asia and the SEA area, since meat was an expensive food, and was considered as a symbol of wealth. However, the environment is changing, and with the fastest increase in population, alternative protein is crucial. Here is a great and thorough report from Good Food Institute APAC for alternative protein in the #APAC area! 😎 Focus on industry professionals>> In 2022, the number of #B2B startups launched in APAC surpassed the number of B2C startups for the first time. 🕵️ The eco-system is coming to one piece>> APAC is a great incubation With significant agriculture resources, an advanced bio-based economy, and powerful manufacturing giants. #foodtech #tuesday #thepulseoffood #alternativeproteins #asiapacific #foodtrend #betterfuture

Amid recent declines in deals and valuations, the push for sustainable food solutions is accelerating the development of alternative proteins. Takafumi Kuramoto, Head of Growth Strategy at Y&S, explores how Southeast Asian trends mirror global movements and delves into Japan's investment landscape and strategic players in this evolving sector.

With rapid population growth and increasing urbanization, Southeast Asia faces significant challenges in meeting increasingly complex food demands. Foodtech emerges as an innovative solution to address these challenges while also opening up promising business opportunities.

🇪🇸🌱 CATALONIA PROMOTES BOOMING ALT-PROTEIN SECTOR TO FOREIGN INVESTORS As Spain’s alternative protein sector expands, Catalonia is hoping to become a centre of innovation for these future foods. A new report by the government’s Catalonia Trade & Investment agency reveals that the autonomous region is home to 112 companies in the sector, which employ 1,031 people and generate €301M in revenue. But it expects the number of businesses working with alternative proteins to “grow exponentially in the coming years”. In what is dubbed as the “first comprehensive analysis of this field” in the region, the state agency claims it ranks 14th on the global list of alternative protein projects receiving foreign direct investment. The report seems to be an effort to attract foreign businesses to Catalonia, with a statement from Bernat Ananos Martinez, co-founder and plant-based meat leader Heura Foods (which is based in Barcelona, the Catalan capital), outlining as much: “Barcelona and Catalonia are the perfect place from which to lead the protein transition.” Among the 112 companies identified by Catalonia Trade and Investment are those that deal exclusively with alternative proteins (like Heura), as well as meat and dairy companies with plant-based product lines. Moreover, there are players specializing in ingredients for taste, aroma and texture enhancements, supplements, and other areas. The report stresses that it’s not just companies that make up the alternative protein ecosystem in Catalonia – it’s also populated by business organisations and associations, technology transfer platforms, incubators, as well as universities and research centres, like Eatable Adventures, Forward Fooding and INNOVACC Clúster català de la carn i la proteïna alternativa. Meanwhile, trade fairs like Alimentaria Barcelona, BIOCULTURA, Hispack, Free From Functional Food Expo, and HOSTELCO also focus on this area.

"An infinite source of meat". This idea has been playing on repeat since I heard Jasper say it two weeks ago at the global launch of 'Forged', Vow's cultured quail. It's typical to hear these kind of grandiose ideas in pitch decks, with little proof of concept. But... - Vow are selling 'Forged' in Singapore. - They've won regulatory approval by the forensically meticulous SFA. - Their factories are ramping up production every day. - The cells production *doubles* every 24 hours. - AND it tastes SO GOOD. ...An infinite source of meat. In our work on the future of food, we use a five-point litmus test to test the potential of novel ingredients: 1 - Is it viable and scalable? 2 - Does it reduce GHG emissions per unit as it scales? 3 - Is it nutritiously dense? 4 - Is it delicious, people can't help but eat it? 5 - Does it resolve a cultural tension/ consumer need? In a world where the impact of climate change is making it harder to grow enough food. A growing, ageing, more prosperous population are consuming more. Where ingredients are becoming less diverse and less nutritionally dense... Vow looks like a breath of fresh air, dreaming up new foods, flavours and textures that didn't exist before. 🇸🇬 If you're in Singapore, I highly recommend snapping up the final seats to try Forged, a seven-course omakase, running at Mandala until Saturday https://hubs.ly/Q02rVYTq0 👏 George Peppou, Sarah Separovich, Jasper Veen #futureoffood

If in Singapore/APAC in May, I highly recommend this conference. From past experience it had some of the most interesting, balanced and diverse perspectives on the panel discussions. It’s also run by the very brilliant Isabelle DECITRE a pioneer founder, investing in some of the most interesting agrifood technologies emerging today, to improve the global food system for all stakeholders. #futurefoodasia #ideasworthsharing #IDCapital #sustainablebusiness #innovation #betterfuture #betterbusiness #investment #startupecosystem #startupfunding

🌎🌎 Fighting Coffee Issue ☕️☕️ 🌱 Brewing Up a Sustainable Future: Innovations in FoodTech ☕ After attending the 2024 Agri-Food Tech Expo Asia in Singapore, I am brimming with inspiration from the groundbreaking innovations shaping the future of food. One of the conversation resonated with me was the rise of alternative coffee—a revolutionary solution blending sustainability, innovation, and a forward-thinking approach to one of the world’s (also mine) most beloved beverages. The insightful article by Forward Fooding, “Brewing Up a Sustainable Future with Alternative Coffee,” dives into how startups are challenging traditional coffee production methods. These innovators are addressing critical issues like climate change, resource scarcity, and supply chain pressures. https://lnkd.in/g8AjGWeR What struck me most was the potential of alternative coffee to: • Reduce environmental impact by decreasing water and land use compared to traditional coffee farming. • Mitigate risks in coffee supply chains caused by unpredictable climate conditions. • Empower consumers to enjoy their coffee guilt-free while contributing to sustainability goals. Proud to see our friend, Prefer | bean-free coffee, Jake Berber mentioned in the article too. At the expo, I saw firsthand how agritech is transforming the future of food and beverages. From lab-grown produce to AI-driven farming solutions, these advancements are paving the way for a more sustainable and resilient food system. The innovation in alternative coffee is just the beginning of what’s possible when we combine cutting-edge technology with a commitment to sustainability. I’m excited to see how these trends will continue to evolve and create a lasting impact on global food security and sustainability.
