MycoSure had the pleasure of hosting Dr Titus Mathe, CEO of the Technology Innovation Agency (TIA), along with members of his executive team, Mr Sibusiso Manana (Acting Chief Innovation Officer) and Mr James Sakwa (Head: Industrial Biotechnology) on site yesterday.

TIA supported our original Proof of Concept, and this visit was a great opportunity to update Dr Mathe and his team on MycoSure’s progress, including a tasting of sample products made with our mycoprotein. It also gave our team a chance to share our key priorities as we continue to transition towards commercial production.

Thank you to Dr Ghaneshree Moonsamy, who leads our ongoing optimisation work alongside the MycoSure technical team, and Lara Kotze-Jacobs, for hosting us at the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR). Thanks too to Steyn Du Plessis, Managing Director of the CSIR C3, for sharing his perspective on MycoSure as the Lead Investor of our most recent funding round.
