Feeding the Future Together: Building Scalable Cell Feed Solutions for Cultivated Protein Through Strategic Partnerships

Nutreco is a global animal feed company with the purpose ‘Feeding the Future’. Looking at global protein demand development, and the need for advancements in traditional and alternative proteins. Nutreco believes cultivated protein is one of the answers to this challenge.

It has opened the world’s first food grade cell feed facility and is actively developing partnerships in the industry to drive cell feed solutions forward.

Developing affordable, scalable, and food-grade cell feed remains one of the biggest technical and commercial challenges facing cultivated protein production. As companies work to reduce reliance on costly pharmaceutical-grade inputs, new partnerships are emerging across biotechnology, agriculture, and feed systems to build more practical and scalable supply chains. In this session, Vincent Krudde from Nutreco will explore how cross-sector collaboration and feed-industry expertise could help accelerate the development of cost-effective cell feed solutions for industrial-scale cultivated protein manufacturing.

What you will take away:

• Why scalable cell feed remains critical to cultivated protein commercialization

• How cross-sector partnerships can help reduce costs and accelerate development

• Building reliable and food-grade supply chains for future protein production

• The growing role of agriculture and feed expertise in cultivated protein systems

• What still needs to happen to support industrial-scale cultivated protein manufacturing
