Romeo Frega, Business Development Manager at ABF Ingredients, was at HackSummit recently to discuss what it really takes to scale in FoodTech, in conversation with ABFI alumna and MicroHarvest founder Katelijne Bekers.   The fireside chat focused on moving from pilot to industrial scale and why designing with the end in mind is critical for long‑term success. The discussion also explored how European industrial players can remain competitive by leading with technology rather than cost, and how ABFI works with start‑ups by applying deep industrial and commercial expertise to help innovation scale.   A sharp discussion on scale‑up, strategy and the future of industrial biotechnology in Europe.
