Powered by Protein Production Technology International As precision fermentation moves from the laboratory into commercial manufacturing, the ability to measure, interpret, and control a process becomes increasingly important. Conditions that are relatively easy to monitor in a small bioreactor can become far more complex at industrial scale, where variability, changing cell behavior, and process limitations can affect yield, consistency, and cost. In this episode of the Protein Production Technology International Webinar, hosted by Alex Crisp and presented in partnership with Hamilton Process Analytics, five experts explore the measurement and process-control challenges shaping the future of precision fermentation. The panel brings together perspectives from sensor technology, AI-powered bioreactor control, commercial fermentation, ingredient development, and manufacturing scale-up. They discuss what companies need to measure as they move from R&D to production, how to make better use of existing process data, and where conventional monitoring approaches can leave important blind spots. The conversation examines the role of sensors, off-gas analysis, modelling, and AI in understanding what is happening inside a bioreactor. As processes scale, conditions become less homogeneous, and measurements taken at one point may not tell the whole story. The speakers explore how predictive models and adaptive process control could help manufacturers better understand cell states, anticipate problems, and make more informed decisions. Beyond measurement itself, the discussion looks at the relationship between strain development, process optimization, and manufacturing performance. The panel considers continuous fermentation, downstream processing, and the challenges of transferring a carefully developed process into a different production environment. The experts also explore the commercial realities of scale-up: achieving consistent product quality, improving yields, managing production costs, and selecting manufacturing partners. Better measurement and control are valuable not simply for the data they provide, but for their ability to help companies produce the right product reliably and economically. From identifying critical process parameters to making smarter use of AI and sensor data, this webinar examines how closing measurement gaps can help precision fermentation move toward more predictable, scalable, and commercially viable production.

In this episode, the panel discussion, moderated by Nick Bradley, Editor of Protein Production Technology International, explores the significance of bioreactors in the sustainable production of alternative proteins. Experts, including Yash Mishra (Animal Alternative Technologies), Arpad Csay (GEA), Jack Reid (Unicorn Biotechnologies), and Yossi Quint (Ark Biotech), dive into the potentials and challenges of cultivated meat and fermentation-derived proteins. They emphasize the urgent need to address the existing shortfall in bioreactor capacity to meet global meat demand and discuss strategic approaches for enhancing bioreactor design and scaling up production. The conversation further differentiates the unique requirements for bioreactors in cultivated meat production versus those in biopharmaceuticals, considering cost implications, energy efficiency, and product quality. The episode wraps up with a reflection on the role of multinational food companies in this dynamic ecosystem and the necessity to strike a balance between scalability, efficiency, and sustainability in bioreactor design.

Across generations, across diverse contexts, we’re all human. We need support, and help, and a nudge in the right direction to help us achieve our full potential. In this episode, Yash , Founder, SuperBeings, talks about his two-year journey discovering powerful concepts in positive psychology, neuroscience and best practices in motivation. We talk about how behavioural nudges can help us become better, and lead the way for organisational learning and touch upon growth, hybrid work, Buddhism, positive psychology and how HERO skills can create superbeings!
