By leveraging each country’s respective strengths, companies on both sides will benefit through access to new technologies and research, access to new customers, and, ultimately, the growth of their companies. “Our vision is to enable people to live longer, healthier lives and we can achieve this by transforming our food system into one that is more productive, sustainable and resilient,” Executive Director, Healthy Living and Agriculture Domain at Innovate UK, Dr. Katrina Hayter said. “Having the opportunity to learn and collaborate with counterparts in Canada is vital for ensuring that technology, practices and sustainability benefits continue to develop, and this partnership represents a landmark moment in bringing the expertise of both nations together in the plant-based foods space. We look forward to supporting new connections and collaborations as the partnership develops, to drive the development and adoption of new technologies across the sector, and enabling the transition to net zero food systems.” The partnership kicked off with a webinar on June 7 that introduced UK and Canadian companies to the opportunities and benefit of creating cross-country partnerships. In fall 2023, a delegation of UK businesses, led by Innovate UK, will attend Protein Industries Canada’s Conference and AGM in September, where a matchmaking event will be hosted. In return, a delegation of Canadian companies let by Protein Industries Canada will return to the United Kingdom later in September. The United Kingdom is a natural partner for Canadian companies. Building off Canada’s natural advantage as grower of sustainable high-protein crops and the processor of high-protein plant-based ingredients, Canada can help supply UK food companies with the ingredients they need to create sustainable and healthy plant-based foods. In return, Canadian companies will gain access to new research, markets and customers. -- About Protein Industries Canada Protein Industries Canada is an industry-led, not-for-profit organization committed to positioning Canada as a global source of high-quality plant-based food and ingredients.
