Overview
Context & Rationale
Cellular agriculture (Cell Ag) is an emerging field that leverages cutting-edge biotechnology to produce agricultural products—such as cultivated meat, dairy, and other proteins—through cell cultures rather than traditional farming. With Singapore recognized as a global leader in alternative proteins and Canada holding robust agri-food expertise and resources, there is an immense opportunity for both countries to collaborate on research, investment, and market development.
By bringing together government representatives, academics, industry stakeholders, and innovators, this networking session will foster meaningful connections between Canadian and Singaporean ecosystems, catalyzing future partnerships in sustainable protein innovation.
