JACA will be presenting at the “Webtalk: Rethinking Food – APAC as a Living Lab for the Future” (2025/8/21)

Alternative Protein and Novel food offer a powerful opportunity, not only to secure economic strength in the global food market, but also as a strategic path toward food security and greater independence. While debates continue in the European Union about how we may describe or label plant-based foods, alongside ongoing discussions on the regulation of novel foods, innovation appears to be deeply embedded in the DNA of food authorities in the Asia Pacific Region.

So, what can we learn from Asia?

Join us for an insightful conversation on the relevance of food security, the role of innovations such as algae, and the evolving landscape of novel food regulation.

We’ll explore:

• Which technologies will shape the future of food security?
• What potential do algae hold as a sustainable food source?
• And what lessons can be drawn from the regulatory approaches of countries like Singapore and Japan?

• Let’s find out how forward-thinking policies and bold innovation can pave the way toward a resilient, future-proof food system.
