EVENT: How do you Milk a Microbe?

How Synbio is Disrupting the Dairy Industry

Join us June 16, 2022 at 10 am PST for National Dairy Month to learn all about new synbio “dairy” products and ingredients rapidly entering the market – largely unregulated and unlabeled. How are genetically engineered microbes making “milk”? What is precision fermentation? Who’s manufacturing “animal-free” dairy? Is it really a solution to climate, people, or animal welfare? If you are a chill buyer, work in the dairy industry, sell milk products, or purchase ingredients for your brand, you will not want to miss this seminar. 

Industry experts for this seminar include: Megan Westgate, Executive Director of the Non-GMO Project; Albert Straus, founder/CEO of Straus Family Creamery; Alan Lewis, TEDx speaker, and head of government affairs and food and agriculture policy for Natural Grocers; Errol Schweizer, author, journalist and former leader of the national grocery program at Whole Foods Market; and Linda Cognato, Non-GMO Project Research Analyst.
