AltProtein Asia 2026


Where does your research fit into the next 15 years of alternative protein innovation?

Alternative proteins aren’t a single destination—they’re a journey of incremental, compounding breakthroughs.

AltProtein Asia 2026 will map that journey using GFI’s new technical roadmap to help you connect your research to the wider R&D landscape, and identify the technical advances and pathways needed to move your work forward.

Friday, 30 October 2026
2PM – 5PM

Bezos Center for Sustainable Proteins, National University of Singapore

Expert presentations, facilitated workshops, structured networking

Satellite event to  Singapore International Agri-Food Week (SIAW) 2026


Explore GFI’s new
15-year technical roadmap

The programme is anchored around GFI’s newly developed technical roadmap, which maps how cultivated meat, plant-based, and fermentation technologies could evolve over the next 15 years.

Understand which product archetypes are achievable across near-, mid-, and long-term horizons, and the advances needed to unlock them. 


What does it take to move from research to market?

Hear from three industry leaders who will share an Industry Reality Snapshot: a candid look at the technical and commercial challenges involved in translating research into viable products.

Dr. Ding Shijie

Co-founder and CEO, Joes Future Food

Dr. Gerlis von Haugwitz

Product Manager, CREMER Sustainable Nutrition

Map your research within the bigger picture

Situate your work

Through structured collaborative exercises, you’ll situate your own research within that roadmap, exploring where complementary innovations intersect, and identifying regional coordination could multiply your impact. 

Work with experts

Exchange with researchers from TUMCREATE, BCSP@NUS (the Bezos Center for Sustainable Proteins at NUS), La Trobe University, and other institutions working across cultivated, fermentation and plant-based technologies.


Join us for
AltProtein Asia 2026

Whether you work on cultivated meat, fermentation, or plant-based technologies, this is your chance to look beyond your own individual research and consider the bigger product development picture.

Explore how combining your technology with complementary innovations could unlock the next generation of products that consumers actually want, and the planet actually needs.

Together, we’re not just advancing individual technologies. We’re building the roadmap to a food system that works.
