Being bioactive ingredients such a challenging area, it is also a multiple paths opportunity for many types of marketable products, that span the range from whole foods (functional foods) to druglike isolated compounds (nutraceuticals).
Participants from companies active in biomass valorization, biotechnology, food industry (bioactive ingredients developers and distributers) will find in this workshop interesting hints from experts and success cases from bioactive ingredients SMEs addressing opportunities and facing challenges.
