Roundtable 4
Roundtable Discussions
Alternative protein companies cannot scale on innovation alone. Shared infrastructure, from pilot facilities and manufacturing capacity to regulatory frameworks, research platforms and talent pipelines, may be just as important as the next breakthrough product. This roundtable will explore which enabling assets should be developed as open, shared resources, who should fund and govern them, and how they can accelerate growth across the wider alternative protein ecosystem.
