Mirte will speak on the panel “What’s next in food tech?” on March 11.

Panelists will discuss the following questions: What are the latest innovations on the horizon in the food sector? The alternative protein space, from microbial fermentation to cell-based cultures, is picking up speed, with commercialisation pathways emerging over the next two to five years and Singapore becoming a hotbed for innovation and approvals. Which regions in Asia will next adopt alternative proteins? Where in Asia is drone and satellite surveillance making the most inroads and positive impact?
