"I am pleased to announce the launch of the £15 million national alternative protein innovation centre. This investment positions NAPIC at the forefront of the global ambition to produce the next generation of alternative protein products, services and technologies.
The science and innovation supported by NAPIC will bring together businesses, charities, academic researchers and wider stakeholders to cover the breadth of the alternative proteins industry in the UK and globally, from plant-based protein to new food products created in laboratories.
The UK is at the forefront of the alternative proteins industry which has enabled over £23 million in additional investment and support for NAPIC from businesses, international partners and wider stakeholders."
