Postbiotics opportunities in Asia: Join us to explore future food and supplement innovation at FREE broadcast
Our latest FREE interactive broadcast will drill down into one of hottest topics in nutrition today – postbiotics – and assess the vast new product development opportunities across the functional food and supplements space.

Brought to you by NutraIngredients-Asia, in partnership with Kyowa Hakko Bio, our ‘Spotlight On’​ event will focus on how the industry can maximise the innovation potential and overcome the regulatory challenges when formulating with these ingredients.

We’ll also be detailing how postbiotics are defined and why this is important, as well as addressing the needs of policymakers who are new to such products.

In addition, we’ll be drilling down into the science and research behind postbiotics and analysing the most pertinent health indications, before looking in detail at the commercialisation opportunities, levels of consumer awareness and strategies for educating regulators of their safety and efficacy.

This is a must-attend event for anyone looking to develop a greater understanding of these high-potential, emerging ingredients.

It takes place at 10am Singapore-time on March 16. Register for free here.
