Biotech That Scales: Using a 30-Year Playbook to Reinvent Protein
What if the key to transforming the global protein system lies in technology we've had for decades? Stephan van Sint Fiet, CEO of Vivici, reveals how industrial biotech is stepping off the lab bench and onto supermarket shelves — using precision fermentation to create dairy proteins ready for scale. In this episode, we unpack Vivici’s strategic focus on high-value proteins like beta-lactoglobulin, their approach to reaching cost parity, and why trust, transparency, and taste are critical for ...
