The macro trends of population growth and global food demand, combined with greater sensitivities towards sustainability, animal welfare and health, will pose great challenges that will make us rethink what we eat and how we produce it. 

In this sense, from ACCION - Generalitat de Catalunya - we promote this session together with INNOVACC - the meat and alternative protein cluster, which aims to:

. Publicize these trends and the conclusions of the study: "Alternative protein as a driver of change in the food industry in Catalonia: mapping and analysis", prepared by the General Directorate of Industry of the Generalitat de Catalunya.

. The action plan promoted jointly by ACCION and the INNOVACC cluster

. Case studies of innovative Catalan companies with alternative protein

The practical cases are gathered in the program of activities under the theme ''The alternative protein to Catalonia"

In the new world that is developing from alternatives to meat products, we must not only dominate the technology or the ingredients, but we must also know the possibilities of evolution of each ingredient and each technology to create "living" formulas that allow us to improve all products. the days. The concept of a stable traditional product on the market loses a lot of meaning in the world of "Future Food" and we need to move forward every day to create on the existing base. This can only be achieved by studying all the technologies, ingredients, products, processes, market trends, cooking each ingredient. How to choose the ingredients, how to study them, how to apply technology every day to "perfect", how to combine all this, how to cook them... Only a dedicated, multidisciplinary team with technicians, scientists and chefs and having all the industrial and culinary technologies can make Futur Food become Today's Food every day with perfect mimetic products of traditional meat products.

Future food demand, especially meat and protein-rich products, is one of the most worrying aspects in view of population growth figures. In recent decades, the global consumption of animal protein has increased considerably. By 2050, the FAO forecasts a world population of 9 billion and a necessary meat production of 410 million kg per year.

In this sense, the search for new alternative sources of protein to animals and suitable for human consumption, animal consumption as well as to restore the quality of the soil will constitute one of the most relevant avenues of research in the future. These new sources of protein will come both from de novo proteins and from assessments of different by-products, giving a new use to materials that are not currently being used. Therefore, the solution to these great challenges must come from a renewable, sustainable source that is part of a zero waste strategy

Asturias presents its landscape cuisine "Cocina de Paisaje" by the hand of one of its ambassadors, chef Xune Andrade.  "Cocina de Paisaje" represents the meeting point where the natural environment, the product and the cuisine come together.

In the framework of current challenges, climate change, population growth and optimization of resources, the need to find alternative proteins at a local and circular level may be strategic at European level. Nature has developed and perfected this system over millions of years, and insect protein can be a useful tool in meeting many of these challenges.

The replication of processed meat products in vegan products presents an important difficulty due to the very different characteristics of animal and vegetable fats.

In the last two years, Metalquimia's QDSnacks technology has provided high-productivity industrial solutions for the production of this type of product in continuous processes, with the application of different strategies, but always based on this technology, which basically consists of the application of air in different temperature and humidity conditions directly on thin layers of the product, whether slices or thin pieces. The QDSnacks technology offers vegan product designers new development tools that can allow both the expansion of the range and the reduction of the level of additives needed to obtain some of the existing ones.

Explanation of the strategic reflection and conception of the Zyrcular Foods business model. From the leaf to the table to the plate to the table.

Nomen presents individual servings of rice that are prepared in just one minute and offer all the flavor and nutritional value thanks to an innovative sustainable packaging system. The goal was to achieve a convenience product that would take a step forward in terms of taste and quality. The challenge has been achieved and is called Qualitat1Minut. The essence lies in two aspects: raw material and R+D. The challenge, therefore, resided largely in the process and the packaging system. And the technical teams, the human teams and the investment have focused on this issue. One of the requirements that the R+D+ and Nomen Foods team self-imposed was to be able to offer 100% sustainable packaging. There was previously no ready-to-eat product on the market that complied with this premise and at the same time could offer qualities that would allow the product to be excellent. The result that has been reached has two keys: reusable glass and a closure system.

A response where innovation plays a crucial role in being able to offer the markets a diversity of protein-based products from different sources, with the common denominator of doing it under the highest standards of quality and food safety with which the company is recognized, and with a solid productive and supply capacity.

Precision fermentation (the use of microorganisms which serve as "bio-factories" to produce specific ingredients) is a booming trend in the food industry. Based on existing knowledge in the field of traditional fermentation, food biotechnology through directed fermentation opens the way to an unlimited spectrum of ingredients with which to create flavours, textures and aromas, and improve the nutritional profile of the foods for which they are intended. In a world in which sustainability is no longer an option but a need and the tag "natural" is becoming a must, the use of continuous bioreactors in a limited space which use vegetable by-products as fermentation substrates allows for the production of ingredients with a high degree of purity which are more profitable than those produced by chemical synthesis or extraction.
