Stream2Food: Utilizing Food Industry Side Streams into Nutrient Media for production of Cell-based Products
As part of the public call " Implementation of Research and Development Programmes (TRL 3–6)", DATAPAN has joined a consortium that successfully secured funding for the project "Stream2Food: Valorisation of Food Industry Side Streams for the Development of Nutrient Media for Cell-Based Product Manufacturing."
The programme is positioned within the broader context of innovation in the food sector and addresses the growing demand for sustainable protein sources. Its objective is to develop innovative nutrient media derived from food industry side streams, enabling more sustainable and cost-effective production of cell-based products.
More about the project on the official website.
The project is coordinated by the Centre of Excellence for Biosensors, Instrumentation and Process Control (COBIK). The consortium partners include Acies Bio d.o.o., Datapan d.o.o. Mlinotest d.d., the National Institute of Biology, Reni d.o.o., the University of Primorska, and the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Maribor.
The 39-month programme has a total budget of EUR 4,841,377.81, of which EUR 316,540.00 is allocated to DATAPAN.
Project duration: April 2026 – June 2029
