We cover: 

  • What is leaf protein? 
  • The extraction process 
  • Global competitor landscape 
  • Other plants and their protein extraction 
  • Commercialising leaf protein
  • What stage is Leaf Protein Co. currently at?

  • What the future holds for Leaf Protein Co 
  • The future of the protein industry 


One-liners you don’t want to miss:

“Rubisco protein enzyme can be found in pretty much any leaf of any pant on earth and this is how it comes to be this most abundant protein on earth.”

“To date is hasn’t been commercially made available. That’s potentially the nut we are trying to crack is to bring to market this amazing plant protein.”
