MOA is a B2B platform that transforms agri-food industry by-products into a sustainable, next-generation protein source using biotechnology and artificial intelligence. They upcycle food waste through fermentation, creating microbial biomass with high nutritional and technological value, reducing environmental impact. Their process utilizes proprietary AI to select optimal microorganisms, saving research time and maximizing efficiency. The resulting single-cell protein (SCP) has excellent nutritional qualities, versatility, and a low environmental footprint, containing all essential amino acids with high digestibility and no allergenic potential. This sustainable ingredient can be integrated into various food applications like meat analogues, sauces, bread, and plant-based cheese.
