Plant2Food Pitch Session

TOPIC: AI for Plant-based food developments

The design and development of new plant-based food products present a complex, multidimensional challenge - one underscored by the fact that nearly 80% ofnew product developments fail. To address this high failure rate, AI-powered innovation assistants are increasingly essential for integrating all facets of prototype recipe formulation, process design, and prototype assessment.
 

AI has shown successful in capturing complex functionality of plant-based ingredients provided sufficient experimental data is available. We would like to adapt a combinatorial assessment system developed in the pharmaceutical field and use AI to extract critical data from a high throughput experimental system to generate predictive models that can identify promising product formulations.

You can schedule up to three meetings, where youll have the chance to connect with potential new collaboration partners, gain insights into other relevant stakeholders and initiatives, and showcase your organisation, project ideas, or research. 👋

All of this will take place in a fantastic setting with a relaxed atmosphere, accompanied by sparkling drinks and the smooth sounds of a live jazz trio.🎷🥂

🗓 December 19th from 13.00 to 14.00 online via Teams. The webinar is free to attend. Sign up here: 

Join this incredibly exciting webinar with Dr. Phil Howel (Research Lead, Crop Genetic Resources | NIAB / Bezos Centre for Sustainable Protein) who will be speaking on the topic:
 

From pre-breeding in cereals to the Bezos Centre for Sustainable Protein: how crop genetic diversity can power sustainable food systems to improve consumer and planetary health

Modern crop production must meet the challenges of growing sufficient nutritious food using fewer inputs, in the face of a changing climate and growing population, whilst minimising negative impacts on biodiversity and the environment.

 Niab has been at the forefront of pre-breeding, exploring the rich genetic diversity that falls outside the range of elite cultivars, and bringing this into the hands of commercial breeders to ultimately deliver future crop varieties which are more nutritious, more resilient and less reliant on intensive farming practices. This talk will highlight lessons learned through pre-breeding in wheat, and how these are now being applied to help accelerate progress in other crops such as legumes. These will underpin the emerging plant-based protein sector, including exciting initiatives such as the new Bezos Centre for Sustainable Protein.

Both entry to the museum and the event are free.

We look forward to seeing you all

Best regards
