All rooms are equipped with a private bathroom\, Wi-Fi\, phone\, TV\, and hairdryer. Continental breakfast is included. \nBook your stay at Ce.U.BRegisterSatellite events The ProteInn Club Industrial Sounding Board Meeting\nThe ProteInn Club is a collaboration between Bio Base Europe Pilot Plant\, Ghent University\, the Flanders Research Institute for Agriculture\, Fisheries\, and Food (ILVO)\, and CAPTURE. The club’s ambition is to facilitate innovations and accelerate the development of a unique fermentation-based protein ecosystem. Members of the Industrial Sounding Board are positioned at various points within the value chain of fermentation-based proteins. On the one hand\, there are companies developing fermentation processes\, while on the other\, there are companies producing side streams that can be used as feedstock for these processes\, and companies interested in incorporating fermentation-based proteins into their end products. The overall goals of the club are to connect the partners along this value chain\, foster the developing ecosystem\, and raise awareness about fermentation-derived proteins. During this event\, the core team of The ProteInn Club will link up with the full Industrial Sounding Board to discuss the latest developments in the fermentation-based protein landscape. Topics can include updates on ongoing projects\, interesting upcoming funding calls\, policy briefs\, and the presentation of new ProteInn Club members. This is a private event. Attendance by invitation only. \nSatellite events Seeing is believing: Study Visit to the Bio Base Europe Pilot Plant\nHop on the shuttle bus to the Bio Base Europe Pilot Plant and discover what scale-up is and looks like!
