The transformation of the global food system by replacing animal proteins with sustainable alternative protein sources across the whole value chain is one of the single most important and needed changes we are experiencing in current times. Over the last couple of years, the team of Hec Advisors has gained vast experience and expertise in this domain, predominantly through a mandate for the market leader in the acceleration and financing of that new asset class and sector.
