2021.02.04
A panel discussion, "Future Food Tech ASIA," will be held within the 10th Annual Conference of the Association of Hyperdifferent Fields, March 5-6, 2021 (Friday and Saturday), hosted by LIVERNESS.
Food tech ventures are hot in Southeast Asia right now. In this huge market of 650 million people with diverse food cultures, investment in food tech is accelerating at the national level, as it can improve food self-sufficiency in a sustainable manner. In particular, Singapore, which depends on imports for about 90% of its food, is expected to become a global food tech hub in the future after the world's first cell-derived cultured chicken was approved for sale at the end of last year.
The Liverness Group is actively supporting ventures in the alternative meat and food packaging areas in Singapore and Malaysia. Shiok Meats, a Singaporean company in which Realtech Holdings has invested, aims to develop shrimp cell cultured meat through collaboration with Japanese ventures and business companies. Realtech Holdings has invested in Shiok Meats in Singapore, which aims to develop cultured shrimp cell meat through collaboration with Japanese venture and business companies. In this session, together with domestic and foreign food tech ventures at the forefront of food tech, we will discuss mechanisms to create cross-border collaboration to solve food issues in Southeast Asia.
We will have a program of discussions among researchers, start-ups, and large companies from a variety of perspectives, not limited to the themes of this session.
We are now accepting applications for audience participation. Please visit the conference website (see below).
