It's been a while since I posted a new live set.
This was recorded last weekend at Outlier Festival in London.
I've chopped off the last 30 mins as it has too many spoilers for music not yet released, although there are already plenty of new tracks in there already.
Thought I'd better post about the new live shows, as I've changed things round a bit for the new album.
I'll now be doing two different shows as Alex Smoke, one for dancefloors and one for watching and listening.
The first is like my old live show but totally reworked and incorporating new hardware and nearly all new music. It will be billed as the usual 'Alex Smoke Live'.
The second is a much more esoteric mix of sound and visuals, and aimed more as a gig, with Florence To in charge of the visual elements. It will be billed as 'Alex Smoke – L.O.W A/V'.
I'll be posting a dancefloor live set soon, but for now these videos are teasers for the A/V show.
A new mix, done for Thump.
Best loud and in the dark.
A long time coming, this album.
Out today on R&S and I am very glad to see it out in the world.
Any Bandcamp purchase comes with 5 extra vocal-free dub versions.
First track is now available to preview.
Mine and Florence To's new installation performance under the name of CØV.
It's based on our ongoing work to do with psycho-acoustics, modal music and entrainment, and is basically designed to be as immersive as possible. It has been created especially for Sonic-a 2015, and more particularly for the small pool at Govanhill Baths in Glasgow, home of the most incredible reverb.
We don't like to be too prescriptive in telling what it's all about, but there is an Egyptian thread running through it and it can be seen as the darker sibling of next year's Transcending project.
Performances run 3 times a day, from 5th – 7th November, every half hour from 6pm.
Tickets are £5 and space is extremely limited.

President Trump Weighs In After DNC Says Fox News Can't Host A Primary Debate
Trump weighed in just hours after the DNC announced it is not allowing Fox News to host any Democratic presidential debates this election cycle, citing the Fox's alleged "inappropriate relationship" with the president.
"Democrats just blocked Fox News from holding a debate," Trump tweeted. "Good, then I think I'll do the same thing with the Fake News Networks and the Radical Left Democrats in the General Election debates!"
Update to this story.
Democrats just blocked @FoxNews from holding a debate. Good, then I think I'll do the same thing with the Fake News Networks and the Radical Left Democrats in the General Election debates!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 7, 2019
Townhall:
The Democratic National Committee has made one thing very clear: they don't want Fox News involved in the primary debates. According to DNC Chairman Tom Perez, Fox News is unable to host a "fair and neutral debate" for the Democratic candidates.
Perez released the following statement about the subject:
I believe that a key pathway to victory is to continue to expand our electorate and reach all voters. That is why I have made it a priority to talk to a broad array of potential media partners, including Fox News. Recent reporting in the New Yorker on the inappropriate relationship between President Trump, his administration and Fox News has led me to conclude that the network is not in a position to host a fair and neutral debate for our candidates. Therefore, Fox News will not serve as a media partner for the 2020 Democratic primary debates.
What Perez didn't anticipate, however, was how President Donald Trump would react to the news. Trump took to Twitter to remind Perez of one thing: in order for a general election debate to take place, the president has to be on stage. And he's refusing to cooperate as long as Fox News is left out of the picture. More
Does the DNC realize what it has started? This is great. The Democrats have never had to deal with a sitting President like Donald Trump… One who isn't afraid to immediately strike back, and they can't handle it!
Should the RNC refuse to allow ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN and MSNBC from holding any of their primary debates?

Tech Support — Can You See This?
I got an e-mail from a loyal reader who said the blog was stuck on Tuesday, September 11.
That was the day we migrated BBWW to a new server and added site security, which is why you now see a little green padlock and an "s" in the https:// in the URL. But it also means that we've had a technical issue that effected some users. We think we've fixed it, but if you missed the last month of posts, please comment below with a note, and perhaps what operating system (Windows, Mac, etc) and what browser (Firefox, Chrome, IE, Edge, Safari, etc). and I'll turn it over to our crack team of experts.

Building A Community and Beyond
A Caring Community
Mental Health is health.
Our vision is for a system that is affordable, accessible, comprehensive, and easy to navigate.
We must expand mental health services covered under OHIP and expand community based mental health services.
Underlying issues such as access to safe, affordable housing and meaningful employment are essential for our well-being and mental health.
Our vision is for an Ontario that cares for its people.
We do not want a province where patients linger in hospital corridors waiting for care.
As our population ages, health care costs are rising and very little has been done to prepare for the influx of what is now a provincial health crisis.
The tragedy of the Covid-19 pandemic has emphasized the importance of investing in the public health care system instead of cutting it by a hundred million dollars a year.
Ontario's health care system was not prepared for COVID-19 and this public health crisis has exposed the massive gaps in how we care for each other.
We need to put more resources into clearing the surgery backlog as well as funding public health so Ontario is prepared for the next crisis.
Ensuring that the most vulnerable in our community are protected, should be every elected officials priority.
COVID-19 exposed the lack of investment in LTC, resulting in a humanitarian crisis.
We need to restore dignity to our elders and be their voice
We need to commit to putting care and compassion over profits and begin phasing out for-profit long-term care homes.
Decades of neglect and cost-cutting from successive governments, coupled with Doug Ford's weak pandemic response, resulted in a tragic humanitarian crisis across Ontario's Long-Term Care homes.
Ford's promised iron ring around LTC homes failed to materialise.
LTC residents cannot wait 4 years for 4 hours of care.
We need to look beyond just long-term care homes to models like ageing in place and home care.
Recognize and address the need for local access to culturally safe and linguistically appropriate health care for northern Ontario's Francophones and Indigenous Peoples.
Protect carbon-rich peatlands ahead of Ring of Fire mining as part of an ambitious and credible climate strategy.
Respecting and establishing Indigenous Protected and Conserved Areas to achieve the international target of protecting 30% of lands and water in Ontario by 2030.
Address the lack of education for skilled trades in northern communities.
Ensure that patients have equitable access to health care in their own communities.
Invest in broadband and connectivity to expand opportunity, access and economic participation for northern communities in Ontario.
Fund an Indigenouss-led housing strategy
The systemic discrimination and racism that Indigenous peoples face results in a violation of the most basic human rights, like access to clean water and shelter.
Indigenous peoples also face racism in our medical, policing and education systems.
By working together and uplifting Indigenous voices, we can build a better society that addresses colonialism, systemic racism, white supremacy and oppression head on.
Today, and every day, we are fully committed to implementing the recommendations of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.
Indigenous Peoples are the original stewards of this land, and have extensive knowledge of how we can protect nature, water and care for each other and the planet.
Severe weather events will become more severe and frequent – disproportionately impacting those in more marginalized situations the most, including First Nations communities.

European Journal of Mineralogy ; 26 (3): 427–437. doi: https://doi.org/10.1127/0935-1221/2014/0026-2382
Mapiquiroite, (Sr,Pb)(U,Y)Fe2(Ti,Fe3+)18O38, was identified as a new mineral from the baryte + pyrite + iron oxide ores of Buca della Vena (BdV) and Monte Arsiccio (MA) mines, Apuan Alps, Tuscany, Italy. At BdV, mapiquiroite occurs as complex rhombohedral or tabular pseudo-hexagonal crystals, up to 1 mm in size, black in colour, with a sub-metallic lustre, in quartz + 'adularia' + baryte veins embedded in schists, in association with allanite-(Ce), anatase, destinezite, gypsum, monazite-(Ce), pyrite, rutile, and 'tourmaline'; at MA, mapiquiroite forms tabular pseudo-hexagonal crystals, up to 5 mm in size, in quartz + carbonate veins embedded in magnetite-rich dolostones, in association with baryte, boulangerite, derbylite, siderite, and sphalerite. Under the microscope, mapiquiroite is blackish in colour, weakly bireflectant, and non-pleochroic. Internal reflections are absent. Anisotropism is distinct, without characteristic rotation tints. Minimum and maximum reflectance data for COM wavelengths [λ (nm), Rair (%); data for the specimens from BdV and MA, respectively] are: 471.1, 17.0/17.2 and 17.7/18.0; 548.3, 16.7/17.0 and 17.6/17.8; 586.6, 16.4/16.7 and 17.3/17.7; 652.3, 16.1/16.3 and 17.0/17.3. Vickers hardness is 750 kg · mm−2 and 782 kg·mm−2 for specimens from BdV and MA, respectively, corresponding to a Mohs' hardness ~ 6. The chemical data point to the formulae (Sr0.533La0.176Pb0.105Na0.030Ca0.026)∑=0.870 (U0.407Ce0.101Y0.205Mn0.072)∑=0.785 Fe3+2.000 (Ti12.423Fe3+3.345Cr1.624V5+0.129Al0.032Sn0.013Nb0.007)∑=17.573O38 (BdV) and (Sr0.312Pb0.248Na0.019Ca0.014La0.009)∑=0.602(U0.858Y0.070Ce0.021Mn0.005)∑=0.954(Fe3+1.695Zn0.305)∑=2.000(Ti12.070Fe3+4.987V5+0.372 Al0.030Nb0.030Cr0.015Sn0.001)∑=17.505O38 (MA). Mapiquiroite is trigonal, R3̄, with a 10.3719(7), c 20.875(1) Å, V 1944.8(2) Å3 and a 10.3854(3), c 20.8942(6) Å, V 1951.7(1) Å3 for the specimens from BdV and MA, respectively. The crystal structures of mapiquiroite from these two occurrences were refined to R1 = 0.028 and 0.032, respectively. Mapiquiroite is isostructural with other members of the crichtonite group. The name mapiquiroite honours four Italian mineral collectors, Riccardo Mazzanti, Luigi Pierotti, Ugo Quilici, and Moreno Romani for their contribution to the study of the mineralogy of baryte + pyrite + iron oxide deposits from the Apuan Alps.

The understanding that early childhood education programs are needed, is not something that is debated, it's a fact. The gray area is often highlighted because — despite our understanding of early education urgency — these programs are not nationally mandated, so many children are under-served, because some of the programs that do exist are expensive and exclusive.
This is a time in a child's life for accelerated development and many of the foundations — math, reading, and science skills — are being established, in addition to their interpersonal skills as well. If the child is supported during this time, we can capitalize on all the learning opportunities and help guide the child to future successes.
According to the National Association of Early Childhood Teacher Educators, children who attend early learning programs exhibit higher levels achievement and social adjustment in school,compared to those who do not attend an early childhood education program. When a child is able to attend an early learning program, any learning difficulties or issues can be identified and mediated early on, preventing a child from being held back or early intervention in special education.
Early education also benefits society as a whole, not only in development, but also socially and economically. When early childhood education suffers, a negative cycle is created; kids aren't graduating high school, so a higher rate of crime is sometimes an outcome, and as a result, higher prison costs. Higher subsidized health care costs have also been correlated in children without early education, claiming some health problems are rooted in early childhood experiences.
Who benefits from early learning programs?
The demographics who benefit the most are low-income and middle class kids from disadvantaged communities. The reality is, while both groups struggle financially to pay for these programs, the low-income group can take advantage of government-supported programs, while the middle class doesn't qualify.
The encouraging news is there are so many affordable programs that are starting to surface around the US because communities are starting to realize that early education is only advantageous to both the children and the community alike.

River Capital Sells Can-Do National Tape Investment Through PE Exit
(via AltAssets, October 27, 2014) Southeastern US-focused River Capital has made a strong exit of its interest in adhesive tape, film and foam maker Can-Do National Tape to an unnamed private equity peer, AltAssets can reveal.
The firm is believed to have made a return of about three-times its initial investment through the exit, two sources with knowledge of the deal said.
River bought into CDNT in the summer of 2008. The firm said it could not comment on financial details of the sale.
Managing partner Jerry Wethington said, "During our ownership we successfully expanded into new market segments while broadening the products and services offered.
"CDNT has a bright future as it continues to grow under new ownership."
Atlanta-based River, which was launched in 1985, invests in transactions with purchase prices of between $10m and $50m in the Southeast US and contiguous markets. River's last publicized platform investment was swimming pool and accessories distributor Blue Wave Products in 2012.
Wethington said at the time, "Blue Wave has incredible potential, with deep customer and supplier relationships, a vast product offering and a leading market position."


The main reason for many Bakerloo line trains having an extra driving cab car in the train somewhere is because the current carriages/trains were not originally purchased for that line. The current stock is (refurbished) 1972 train sets which were Northern Line stock.

Since ancient times fish have been seen as wise and steeped in knowledge. In fact youngsters were advised to eat fish to improve their intelligence. In America, Tench, whilst also being construed with such qualities, was believed to cure a range of illnesses and so was given the nickname �Doctor Fish�.
Fish have long been thought to be aware of incidents on the land as well as sea; if a murder, battle or tragedy takes place near-by they will leave the area. In Normandy, France, the coastal people believed that the defeat of Napoleon in 1815 at the Battle of Waterloo affected the local fish and drove them away. The sea became poor to fish directly after the battle.
Success in the forthcoming fishing season could be read from the first catch according to a traditional Herring trawling belief. If the first one picked out was female the nets would be full for the rest of the year, with good health and financial security ensured for the families of the fisherman. Counting the fish though is sure to end up in decreasing the size of the catch for the fisherman who fishes on the river but rest assured if an earwig is spotted on the way to fish as this will serve as a positive omen.
In Scotland (UK) the haddock is considered to be a very lucky fish. It is thought that this faith in the attributes of the haddock are as a result of the belief that his is the very fish that was chosen to feed many people. Black spots can be seen around the gills, which were said to indicate the places were Christ held the fish as He distributed them to the people as told in the parable of the �Feeding of the Five Thousand�. In Celtic folklore the salmon is a revered creature for it�s wisdom, being able to navigate rivers, for bestowing powers upon the hazel-nuts that fall into the waters, and for inadvertently providing Fionn with it�s powers when he burnt his finger after preparing the a salmon for roasting.
In many parts of the world bad weather is thought to be imminent if a large shoal of fish are seen swimming near the surface of the water. Although bad weather may be imminent this does mean that the fish will bite more frequently, and even better, according to old Scottish folklore, if the fisherman due to go out to sea has an argument with his wife or partner the night before the catch will be larger.
A wonderful Yorkshire (UK) tradition still occurs when the nets are being fed out in commemoration of Neptune, king and protector of the sea. A slit is cut in one of the cork floats and a coin placed in the cut. The symbolism of this action is to show that Neptune is being paid for what is taken from the sea. It is thought that if the same fishermen become greedy and decide to fish each day of the week then this will be punished by the gods who protect the deep. This is an ancient tradition and yet if we look at the quotas forced upon modern fishermen as a direct result of over-fishing this piece of folklore clearly shows some forethought.
One commonly held tradition is to never refer to things back on land by their real names (instead using nicknames or pseudonyms), and to never take God�s name if vain. If either should occur all the fisherman on board should immediately touch a piece of iron to dispel any misfortune. When lowering the nets the crew should also avoid uttering the words sow, pig or swine; touching iron may save them from misfortune but it is likely that the size of the catch will be affected. Pigs were believed to be to see the wind and therefore can soon change the fortunes of the weather according to folklore. Able to see bad weather coming it naturally follows that pigs may also be able to influence fish to areas new when their name is taken in vain.


Low yield point strength steel 100 (LYP100) was widely applied to the metallic shear panel damper. To develop function separate damper with LYP100, panel shapes, stiffeners and vertical ribs which affect the deformation capacity of the damper were investigated by static cyclic loading tests. The test results show that the deformation capacity can be improved greatly by alleviating the stress concentration locating at the panel corners. The largest mean shear strain 70% was achieved by optimizing the parameters.


Dr. Naomi Doak, TRAFFIC's Greater Mekong Programme Coordinator, said that the incomplete declaration of legal rhino horns has facilitated the rampant trade of rhino horns and caused tax losses of nearly $2 million for Vietnam.
The cause of this situation is due to the huge profits of the trade of rhino horn, with the "protection" of some officials and diplomats of Vietnam.
Naomi argued: "In 2009, Vietnam reported that about 100 kg of rhino horns were seized and from 2004 to 2008 there were at least 10 arrests related to illegal trade of rhino horns in the domestic market but no one was prosecuted."
According to the latest survey by TRAFFIC with 700 people, 78/700 participants who are women said they bought rhino horns to give to their relatives or their bosses. Only 22 men said the same thing. The main subject using rhino horns is entrepreneurs with 36/700 people, followed by the housewife with 14/700 people.
Dr. Naomi said businessmen and women purchase and use rhino horns because they believe in the advertising information that rhino horns can cure diseases, even cancers or enhance the beauty for woman and sexual ability for men.

Q: How to downgrade Laravel version 5.8 to 5.1 in Ubuntu server? "name": "laravel/laravel",
 "description": "The Laravel Framework.",
 "keywords": [
     "framework",
     "laravel"
 ],
 "license": "MIT",
 "type": "project",
 "require": {
     "php": ">=5.5.9",
     "laravel/framework": "^5.8.0",

A: Simply update the composer.json so that it looks like this "require":"{..., "laravel/framework":"5.1.*" then run composer update.  You may want to downgrade some other dependencies too, if the command fails (it will show you where the problem is, though).
Note: It is NOT recommended to run composer update on production server. You may want to do it on your local machine, and after pushing the code to production, run composer install there.

A: I am not sure downgrading to lower levels is a possibility with Laravel.
The best alternative will be to install a fresh Laravel 5.1 and move your code to it like your controllers and route configurations.
You can install a fresh Laravel 5.1 with
composer create-project laravel/laravel blog "5.1.*" Laravel 5.1 installation guide
Good luck.

what are the health benefits of turmeric - For anyone following a holistic state life, the benefits of turmeric make this spice a "must-have" in the larder. It have in fact been used for over 4000 years to plow ailments wandering from worried bellies to various forms of cancer. It was used by the Ancient Chinese, the Ancient Greeks, the Ancient Romans, and also by the Indians in Ayurvedic medicine. It contains a element known as Curcumin, which is a potent antioxidant and an important negotiator that is able to kill free radicals, thereby helping to prevent the damage that they can cause.
Curcumin is able to stimulate the gallbladder drawing it create more bile, matters of substance which is an important factor in the meat digestion process. Even though it is has not yet been officially documented in the US, the German E Commission, which is the official government form responsible for the dominate of the herbs that are able safely prescribed in Germany, has recognized Curcumin for its curative cleverness in relation to disorders of the digestive system.
As well as Turmeric's more " official " character in herbal prescription, it also has many other surprising uses too. Let's take a look at some of them now.
Turmeric is used by countless( including former Miss USA-Susie Castillo) to whiten teeth. On first hearing, this sounds a little strange, as turmeric is known for its staining clevernes. However, when used as a whitening negotiator, it doesn't remain in contact with tooth enamel for long enough to cause it to discolor- in fact, really the opposite.
Some parties use turmeric to create a cheek groundwork. When are in addition to an existing groundwork, turmeric renders a certain "glow" point. In India,( where turmeric actually originates ), the womenfolk utilize a turmeric color groundwork , is not simply to their cheek, but to their part mass very. If you're going to try this yourself, really contribute a bit at a time, otherwise you are able end up seeming rather jaundiced.
Turmeric is also used by some people is in addition to home-made soap. As well as having the natural "glow" owneds mentioned above, it also has certain other skin texture benefits too.
The next among the many surprising the advantage of Turmeric, is its give as a scalp conditioner. Exerting any oil that you like,( maybe Coconut oil or Jojoba ), mix in a tinge of Turmeric powder and rub it into your scalp. Leave in place for a quarter of any hour, then rinse out with warm spray. This is said to is not simply improve the lives of your scalp, but to purge you of any dandruff too.
Turmeric can also be applied topically as a paste to help to reduce both the inflammation and increase of any dislocate. Just be careful where you use it, because you have to leave it in place for about 20 minutes which will result in discolouring. To mix the paste, use one part of salt to two parts of Turmeric, and sufficient spray to make it into a spreadable past. Spread on the dislocated brace, then wrapping with a cloth. Don't forget that the cloth will discolour very, so use something you are able to put away when you've finished with it.
Turmeric is also used by some people as a remedy for Acne. Along with sugar it is mixed to make a facial scour, which when applied, is said to help to reduce the inflammation.
Another of the benefits of Turmeric is that it can be used as a management to reduce the sorenes, irritability and inflammation of insect bites. This is in the form of another paste which is for thematic work, and is made by compounding Turmeric with Aloe Vera gel. It can also be used to soothe scorches and deadly ivy impurity, to alleviate the itchiness of scalp during chickenpox, and to fighting eczema.
When parties suffer from so called " swimmer's ear",( the figure given to a condition whereby spray gets captured in the ear ), they sometimes use garlic oil, which is gently warm then spouted into the affected ear. Including turmeric to the oil is said to enhance the restorative powers of this remedy.
Turmeric is renowned for its anti-inflammatory owneds and is often taken as a augment (( brought over the counter in vessel chassis, in the majority good health food stores) by people suffering from arthritis or other inflammatory problems. It helps to reduce both inflammation and pain.
Another of the benefits of turmeric is that it has the ability to help to control glucose stages in the blood. For this reason it is often used by diabetics to augment their prescriptive medication. It can also help to stop the build-up of defiance to insulin, and is thus be able to help prevent the development of Type 2 diabetes.
It has also suggests that Turmeric may be able to prevent or sluggish the progression of "Alzheimers disease". This may be facilitated by the fact that it can break down high levels of medal circumventing the psyche, thereby increasing the amounts of oxygen that are able to reach it.
Another of Turmeric's parts is a element known as Lip polysaccharide, which can help to enhance the capability of your immune organization. In additive, Turmeric's antibacterial, anti-viral, and antifungal features can also help to draw your immune organization stronger.

What is FoodTech? Technologies for the food sector
21/07/2021 /in Ecosystem, Foodtech, Startups-article/by Eatable Adventures
The world is changing at a speed never before seen by mankind. The industrial revolution, which began at the end of the 18th century, was the initial trigger. However, the technological revolution, driven by the creation of the internet towards the end of the 20th century, was a major catalyst for the change we are currently experiencing.
The technologies we know are becoming more and more advanced. It seems that there is always a new virtual platform to revolutionize the way we communicate, a phenomenon that has grown stronger in the age of covid.
In parallel, the way we humans perceive food has begun to change in recent years, empowered by a greater awareness of the inefficiency of the traditional food system and its impact on the planet and animals. This change in perspective has naturally stimulated a shift in the global food supply. This is where the crucial role of food technology, or foodtech, comes in.
What is foodtech?
Foodtech as a concept is nothing new. Our ancestors have been modifying food for thousands of years. Even the process of putting food in salt to preserve it can be considered a primitive manifestation of foodtech.
However, foodtech as a term has had much greater relevance in modern times. It represents the sophisticated changes we are currently experiencing. Today's foodtech is not a simple and concise term, but rather one that encompasses all those agents that apply technology to the agri-food value chain. From production to consumption of food, technology is bringing efficiency, safety, and a significant improvement in sustainability.
Foodtech nowadays goes far beyond the mere preservation and alteration of food. Indeed, it is a whole system that encompasses other technologies that converge to improve and streamline the food system of this century. Thus affecting innovation throughout the agri-food value chain.
FoodTech is the new internet
A few decades ago, the internet was the wave of opportunity to be seized. As of 2019, when Beyond Meat became the first foodtech IPO on the New York Stock Exchange, the plant-based food industry was cemented as the new wave of investment to take advantage of. That IPO was the most successful since Yahoo went public in 1996.
Una publicación compartida de Food Entrepreneurs (@foodentrepreneurs_)
In 2019, investment in foodtech startups globally reached a value of $19.8 billion (AgFunder). Only in Europe, investment in startups in this sector grew 106% compared to the previous year. Being increasingly dominated by plant-based foods.
In parallel, there is another sector within the foodtech sphere that is causing a stir worldwide, cultured meat. According to the global consulting firm McKinsey this industry will be worth approximately $25 billion by 2030. It will also be presenting opportunities within and outside the current food industry.
Although this area of foodtech is barely in its infancy, by 2020 cultured meat companies had already raised $366 million. Which is 6 times more than the previous year. As was the case with the internet a few decades ago, the foodtech sector is, and will increasingly continue to be, a major driver of the global economy.
Foodtech technologies
Today's food technologies are numerous and will continue to evolve. The following are the ones with the greatest impact on foodtech:
Blockchain: Launched in 2011 to track bitcoin cryptocurrency transactions, blockchain is a system by which transactions can be made between people around the world without the need for intermediaries.
Fermentation technologies: These are technologies for developing microbes to alter a certain substrate or produce specialized biomass. Humans have relied on fermentation processes for thousands of years to create and alter foods and beverages.
Bioprinting: It consists of the application of microfabrication technologies to the production of textured foods with functional characteristics. It uses cells and biomaterials to create organ-like structures and allows the cells to multiply. This technology has very practical applications in foodtech, especially for creating meat-flavored plant-based or cultured cell-based foods.
Cell Cultured technology: Speaking of cultured cells, this technology is used for manipulation at the cellular level that allows the industrialization of cell lines. Cells are obtained through painless biopsy and are cultured to create a significant amount of meat. The process does not require slaughter or harm to any animals.
Internet of Things: This is the set of devices, communication networks, and central services that make it possible to obtain data and automate different systems. The wireless digitization of today's food industry is key to system efficiency. Especially considering the need for instant communication from one system to another for food production.
Robotics: Automates food creation and processing and can eliminate manual hazards on the production line. This technology increases the efficiency of food production in addition to improving quality.
Data Management: Information analysis and modeling systems using database technologies or artificial intelligence. For food production on a massive scale, the role of Data Management is key to maintain a reliable and updated record of each product that will enter the market.
Automated logistics: Used for autonomous driving, fleet logistics improvement, and last mile logistics. Overall, the warehouse automation industry is projected to reach a value of $27 billion by 2025 (LogisticsIQ latest market research study).
E-commerce: This technology consists of technological tools that enable the implementation of electronic intermediation systems, both between companies and individuals. It is estimated that e-commerce revenues for the food sector will exceed 25.7 billion dollars in the U.S. by 2025.
Novel Foods: New ingredients and forms of production for the creation of foods with a healthier and more sustainable profile. According to the European Commission, Novel Foods are those that were not consumed before May 15, 1997, when the first regulation for Novel Foods was implemented.
Packaging: The elements for the protection and preservation of food in a healthy state, eliminating petroleum products. Many corporations are focusing on the implementation of ecological and biodegradable packaging. In addition to the reduction of excessive materials to protect food in the market.
Foodtech in Spain
Food plays an integral role in Spanish culture. It is no wonder the country keeps producing more and more foodtech startups. The gastronomy sector represents up to 33% of Spain's GDP, according to a report by the multinational consulting firm KPMG.
In Spain, there are approximately 400 startups in the foodtech sector, according to the report "The state of foodtech in Spain 2020" by Eatable Adventures. These companies are very young, as more than 60% are less than three years old. Also, 13% were created in the last year, at the height of the pandemic. Moreover, the majority (35%) are direct-to-consumer models, whose growth has skyrocketed in the wake of the pandemic.
"Foodtech in Spain: Fuelling a More Sustainable and Efficient Food System" by ICEX
"Technology has allowed us to develop 100% vegetable meat that reduces gas emissions by 99% compared to animal meat. This will allow us to create the food system that society needs," said Marc Coloma in an interview with Eatable Adventures.
Coloma is the co-founder of Heura Foods, the Barcelona-based vegan meat company that last month raised €16 million in an investment round.
However, entrepreneurship in this field has yet to reach the stature of other powerhouses, such as Germany, Israel, or the United States.
"I think [in Spain] there have been important steps and initiatives to support entrepreneurship that favor the enrichment and development of the entrepreneurial culture from educational environments, but there is always room for improvement," said Iñigo Charola in an interview with Eatable Adventures.
Charola is the CEO of BioTech Foods, another alternative protein company founded in San Sebastian, Spain in 2017.
There is no doubt that things are changing in Spain, and the foodtech sector is playing an increasingly important role in the country. In January 2021, the Spanish government invested €250,000 in NovaMeat, a company that prints plant-based steaks. Plus, it awarded €5.2 million to the aforementioned BioTech Foods for the development of cell-grown meat.
The role of Eatable Adventures in the foodtech sector
Eatable Adventures promotes the Spain FoodTech Startup Program, an acceleration program whose purpose is to support the development of projects in this field with a solid technological base.
This program -supported by the National Center for Food Technology and Safety (CNTA) and ICEX Spain Export and Investment – already has its five finalist startups. These are Cocuus (large-scale bioprinting of plant-based product analogous to traditional animal protein products); Proppos (AI and computer vision to offer an unattended payment solution in foodservice and supermarkets); Innomy (animal protein substitute products based on mushroom mycelium cultivation); H2 Hydroponics (designs, operates and delivers at full capacity hydroponic vertical and indoor farming facilities in countries with extreme climates); and MOA foodtech (biotechnology and AI used to convert waste and by-products from the agri-food industry into a next generation protein with high nutritional value and is 100% sustainable).
