Plant Protein Innovation Center 7th Annual Research Spotlight - %

University of Minnesota's Plant Protein Innovation Center 7th Annual Research Spotlight event will showcase innovative research in the plant proteins space, including highlights of projects that address PPIC’s current research platforms (Agriculture, Ingredient Development, and Application) delivered by prominent scientists in the field.

Unique to this year’s event are the activities on Day 2. For the first time, we are hosting an engaging workshop in collaboration with the Plant Based Foods Institute (PBFI) focused on building connections between research breakthroughs and the commercial kitchen. Attendees will leave with a sharpened understanding and gain insights into how deliberate coordination across the value chain – from breeding and processing to procurement – can strengthen regional agricultural economies and meet the accelerating demand for high-quality protein in schools, hospitals, corporate campuses and other growing markets.
