Cellular Food - The Next Career Frontier in Food

Somehow today, just an ordinary summer Tuesday here in Dufferin County, turned into Cellular Food Day! So far I've had two conversations about cell food and 6 emails that touched on that topic in some way!

So, I thought I should pop in here to the Career Hub and make sure this emerging branch of the food business is on the radar screen of the food scientists, data scientists and marketers who want exciting careers in food innovation.

First off, if you don't know what Cellular Food is, watch this video featuring @Lenore Newman and Evan Fraser to get all the facts.

Next, if you're a student, you may want to join Nucelate Cultivate which is a group designed for students who are interested in forming companies in the cell food and life sciences spaces.

Need more info? Check out Ontario Genomic's excellent report that identified cellular food as a $12.5 Billion opportunity for Canada. I've uploaded it for your reading pleasure.

Lastly, learn from the pioneers by reading this one year check in with some of the cool innovators leading projects CFIN and Ontario Genomics funded back in 2021.

Let me know in the comments below if you'd like more info about jobs and business opportunities in cellular food. I'm happy to continue the conversation!
