What they argued
Food Fermentation Europe (FFE) welcomes the European Commissions Call for Evidence for Biotech Act II and urges the Commission to bring advanced fermentation for food and feed ingredients explicitly within its scope. The EUs dependence on third-country suppliers for proteins and fermentation-derived feed inputs is a structural vulnerability in the European food system.
Food Fermentation Europe (FFE) represents companies developing precision and biomass fermentation solutions for food and feed. We welcome the European Commissions ambition to design a European Innovation Act that strengthens Europes competitiveness, closes the innovation gap with global peers, and creates an environment where start-ups and scale-ups can thrive. For our sector such an initiative is urgently needed.
