Make Alternative Proteins Mainstream

Date & time
21 November 2025 10 am - 12 pm CET

Everyone’s talking about alternative proteins but making them truly mainstream — that takes more than hype.

Join our free online workshop and training session designed to turn innovation on alternative proteins into real impact. The event is organised by our project partner Nursh Belgium's R&D agency for food & drinks as part of the the LIKE-A-PRO project and is hoasted by Maxime Willems, founder of Nursh.

With 31 partners across 11 countries, LIKE-A-PRO is one of Europe’s most ambitious efforts to help alternative proteins grow - and we want you to be part of it.

During our session, you'll:

  • Learn about 7 different alt-protein sources
  • See how ingredients are transformed into final applications
  • Learn what makes products functional, appealing, and market-ready
  • Connect with producers, suppliers and retail professionals shaping the future of sustainable food
We promise no boring slide decks — just bold ideas and real  ingredients.
