North Carolina is home to a number of groundbreaking alt-meat development centers, from the soon-to-be-completed Believer Meats cultivated meat plant, to the North Carolina Food Innovation Lab, and most recently, the first of three global Bezos Centers for Sustainable Protein at North Carolina State. Bill Aimutis has been in the proteins industry for decades, and now is co-director of the Bezos Center in North Carolina. In this episode, he makes a return visit to MeatingPod’s Alt-Meat edition to discuss what makes the US Bezos Center unique, as well as an integral part of the global alt-meat ecosystem, and what to expect from the center in the coming year.
