How biotechnology can enable more sustainable food systems
DSM regards biotechnology as a key enabler to develop more sustainable products, processes and solutions for the agriculture & food sector that are safe, healthy and scalable. We speak with DSM Chief Technology Officer, Marcus Remmers, about the developments in the field of alternative proteins, the need for more collaboration and open innovation, and DSM’s biotechnology activities in Austria, this year’s EFIB host country.

"Again this year, EFIB proposed a programme with inspiring speakers and attracted high level exhibitors and delegates enabling intense networking."
Philippe MengalExecutive Director, Bio-Based Industries Joint Undertaking 
"What's great about EFIB from what I've seen so far is that it's a real platform for exchange of knowledge and opinions. It's not just people giving sales talks, it's a true intention to bring the industry forward and it's also a great chance for me to learn about new innovations."
Eva Van Der BruggeInnovation Manager, Fashion For Good 
"EFIB was a great time. As exhibitor we could meet a lot of potential partners. This is crucial for our development and such an event is a huge opportunity to my company to gain in visibility in the biotech domain."
Yannick MalbertResearch & Development Engineer, Naturamole

Meredith Lloyd-EvansPresident, BioBridge 
"Within one or two days you can actually meet ten to twelve potential partners and start taking the journeys forward. Do you know how much time it takes to book these ten to twelve meetings by emails or calls? Probably six months! So that’s an effective way of connecting and networking."
