<p>By 2050, the world's population will surpass 10 billion people. To feed the current population and future generations we need to address global food challenges, today. How can we solve this problem without overwhelming the planet? And how can we deliver higher quality, more nutritious food for everyone? With Protera&rsquo;s Natural Intelligence&trade; technology, we believe the future is already here. Protera&rsquo;s technology uses predictive algorithms that calculate millions of amino acid combinations and simulate protein patterns in a matter of seconds. Our technology is based in Deep Learning and allows us to shine a light on a previously untapped universe of proteins. We craft protein-based ingredients faster and more affordably than ever before, unlocking a revolution in human health, reducing damage to the environment, and preventing food waste. Our first products already exceed the performance, scalability, and functionality of existing alternative ingredients.
