Mycorena from ESA Discovery Programme to develop alternative protein in space

Mycorena, a Swedish alternative ingredient producer, has partnered with Atria Sweden, a leading animal meat company, to develop and sell a range of mycoprotein-based products. The partnership will involve scaling up production of Mycorena's Promyc, a complete protein made using a proprietary fungal fermentation process, and Atria using its product development capabilities to create sustainable and allergen-free protein products. Mycorena aims to accelerate the growth of the mycoprotein category in Europe by leveraging Atria's established presence in the market.
