Protein Production Technology Podcast

In this episode of Protein Production Technology International, experts from across the alternative protein sector explore the challenges and opportunities of transitioning from feed-grade to food-grade production. Industry leaders share insights on optimizing fermentation and downstream processing, navigating complex regulatory landscapes, and attracting strategic investment to scale production. The panel emphasizes the importance of taste, texture, and price parity in winning over consumers, alongside the need for collaboration with established food manufacturers to accelerate market entry. They also discuss the role of pilot facilities, the importance of clear regulatory strategies, and how aligning with consumer expectations—rather than pushing sustainability narratives—can enhance product acceptance. The conversation highlights that achieving food-grade success requires not only technological innovation but also smart partnerships, clear communication, and an unwavering focus on delivering delicious, affordable, and trusted products.
