14 Jun 2024 --- Danone has joined forces with the US-based precision fermentation start-up DMC Biotechnologies, tire manufacturer Michelin and French bank Crédit Agricole Centre to create the “Biotech Open Platform” that bolsters the development of precision fermentation on a larger scale. This includes an investment of over €16 million (US$17 million) in the first phase. The biotech tool aims to scale innovative products and processes already tested in the laboratory and speed up precision fermentation processes for the agri-food and material sectors.
