Our team of editors and conference producers are on the hunt for innovative new start-ups that are changing the face of the microbiome space.
Probiota 2020, held 10-12 February in Dublin, aims to bridge the gaps between cutting-edge science, business strategy, and key regulatory developments in the microbiome, probiotic and prebiotic markets.
The three-day event will bring together CEOs, academics and top researchers for otherwise impossible networking opportunities, in addition to interactive presentations and debates that look to share new data, drive new science, boost business growth and aid product development in the rapidly growing and overlapping fields of probiotics, prebiotics and the microbiome.
On the agenda are engaging sessions on the translating the microbiome from clinical research into practice and products, the growing scientific and commercial potential of fermented foods and prebiotics, and the growth of gut health and gut friendly ingredients in mass-market foods and the FMCG environment. In addition, there will be sessions looking at communication, engagement and education on microbiome topics, plus a look at the skin microbiome and beauty market, and a deep-dive into the gut-brain axis.
Calling all pioneering start-ups!
