About the Breakfast Briefing:The food and nutrition industry remains one of the fastest growing
industries in the world, with projected revenue growth of about 4.7% between
2011 to 2016. R&D is a key enabler to propel growth in this industry, where
Singapore is well-positioned to drive innovation to address the complex
challenges presented by the Asian food industry. Such challenges include the
need for robust food safety systems and science-based validation of food health
claims, and meeting the needs and preferences of the growing Asian middle-class
consumer. Singapore’s integrated end-to-end innovation ecosystem and regional
and international collaborations allow for effective engagement with the food
industry to achieve pleasurable and healthy outcomes for the Asian consumer. As
part of Singapore’s innovation ecosystem, A*STAR has research capabilities
ranging from Asian nutrition science to engineering sciences and data
analytics, which could pave the way for new innovations in food safety and
personalised nutrition.
