Call for partnership, alternative proteins and bio-based ingredients

Who we are seeking: we would love to connect with other Canadian companies to identify candidates for project-based partnerships in food ingredient research, to design, develop and scale the production of alternative proteins and bio-based ingredients. Also, CFIN provides funding for companies exploring precision fermentation, which we could tap into together.

We are currently working on projects for Canadian food companies on contract research, in areas including novel ingredient R&D, plant-based animal derived proteins, waste valorization, and other areas.

Who we are: PreFer Industries develops biomanufacturing solutions for the food industry and beyond. Located out of Burlington ON, we specialize in precision fermentation, molecular farming and cell-culture technologies, using novel approaches to produce essential and high-value foreign or exotic proteins.

Dear Bart Deelen, good day!

Terra Creamery is a startup focused on artisanal dairy innovation located in Burlington, ON. We are developing a clean label, high protein formula using whey as a core ingredient but we would love to develop a enriched dairy spread with precision fermented whey protein (β-lactoglobulin). PreFer to source fermentation derived proteins (like animal-free whey or casein) to enrich our spread, giving it a truly unique, high tech edge reducing reliance on animal agriculture by blending traditional dairy with animal-free fermentation proteins.

Please let me know if this sounds interesting.

Thanks,

Ricardo

I'm curious about your partnership/collaboration model. Your note about CFIN funding for precision fermentation is also interesting. I can't seem to track that specific point in their resources. I'm motivated to connect further. tskrinskas@langara.ca
