In this episode, Food & Drink Business editor Kim Berry is joined by Food Futurist, Tony Hunter, to discuss some of the latest food tech developments around the world and their potential impacts on food and beverage R&D.

Kim and Tony catch up on the same day Australian cultivated meat company, Vow, revealed it has created an entire new animal made purely to eat and received approval in Singapore.

We move swiftly into mouse neurons and cyborg computer chips being used for smell, to cultivation techniques used to create meat being used to do so with plants such as cocao and coffee trees, and then onto the potential of AI in food and beverage formulations, before landing on how technology is answering the call for a circular economy by helping develop upcycling processes for food waste.
