The Business of Alt Protein: Navigating upstream to downstream processes in precision fermentation
Event description
Join GFI and CPI to learn how to navigate the process of scaling up your novel food
manufacturing process. In this webinar, CPI will provide insights into the do’s and don’ts of
developing food processes using precision fermentation. Experts from CPI’s team will review both best practices and lessons on what to avoid for everything from strain selection to laboratory process optimization, to DSP essentials, to scale-up solutions.
