Register for free now to attend the webinar which is also available on demand post event.
The webinar will feature Q&A interviews with Life-Space Group, the International Probiotics Association (IPA), and Australia's Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO).
Experts from Swisse Wellness, Theronomic, Specialty Probiotics Australia will also join us for a panel discussion that looks at the latest market trends research, and product innovation opportunities across APAC's microbiome sector.
One of the speakers is Dr Ross Walker, a practising cardiologist and the founder of Theronomic – also the winner of this year’s NutraIngredients-Asia Awards’ Product of the Year (Microbiome Modulation) with its product Tribiotic Gut Shield.
We will also be hearing from Craig Silbery, former boss of Australia’s leading probiotic company Life-Space who has since started on a new biotics business after selling Life-Space to China’s nutraceutical giant BYHEALTH in 2018.
Beyond digestive health, growing scientific evidence showing the relationship between the microbiome and the skin, brain, oral, bone and even heart health means that there is a plethora of research and new product development opportunities for the nutraceutical industry.
The microbiome nutraceutical space is also becoming more multi-dimensional with not just the use of pre- and probiotics, but also postbiotics and the potential for other ingredients that fall outside the ‘biotics’ realm, such as botanicals.
At the same time, regulations on ‘biotics’ use and scepticism from medical doctors might hinder the growth of the category.
In this 75-minute webinar, we will hear exclusive insights on how the industry could address the challenges, as well as finding out the research and new product development opportunities.
