Can experts join internal stand‑ups or work in our tools?
Yes. Experts adapt to your collaboration stack (Slack/Teams/Drive, etc.) and can embed for a few hours per week.
Can you replace an expert mid‑engagement if our needs change?
Yes. If priorities shift, we’ll rematch quickly to keep momentum.
What deliverables can we expect?
Examples: rapid‐response memos, risk registers, TEA models and assumptions books, process flow diagrams (PFDs), pilot plans and trial reports, supplier shortlists and RFPs, regulatory pathway assessments, claim substantiation reviews, commercialization hands-on support, and many more - message us to see if we can cover your desired deliverable.
Do you support both FoodTech and AgriTech adjacencies?
Yes. Ingredients, enzymes, fermentation inputs, biomass valorization/side streams, sustainable packaging, and supply‑chain optimization are all in scope among other topics including agricultural expertise.
What backgrounds do your experts come from?
Former founders and CTOs, ex‑corporate R&D/ops leaders (ingredient, CPG, bioprocess), process/packaging engineers, pilot‑plant managers, QA/food safety leads, sensory & nutrition scientists, LCA/claims specialists, former regulators and notified‑body reviewers, commercialization leaders, and ex‑investors/tech‑DD specialists, and many more.
Which regulatory regimes do your experts support?
Our experts have experience in: US (FDA/USDA), EU (EFSA/Novel Foods), UK (FSA/OPSS), Singapore (SFA), Australia/NZ (FSANZ), Canada (CFIA), and others via country‑specific frameworks. Our experts provide practical, experience‑based guidance rather than legal advice.
Do you cover highly specialized areas like downstream processing, strain engineering, or extrusion?
Yes. Our experts cover topics across wet/dry fractionation, cell line/strain engineering, media optimization, downstream (clarification, filtration, chromatography), extrusion & texturization, aseptic processing, shelf‑life, sensory, and packaging - plus commercialization and scale‑up.
How is the length (and cost) of an engagement determined?
You define the scope; we recommend whether hourly advisory, daily sprint packages or a multi-month retainer fits best. Rates scale accordingly and are agreed upfront - no surprises.
Are engagements remote or onsite?
Most work is remote for speed and cost-efficiency, but onsite audits, pilot-plant visits or workshop days can be arranged worldwide.
Can I book both one-off consultations and long-term support?
Yes. Schedule a 30-60 minute expert call or embed an expert part-time for months - same streamlined process either way.
Who is the contractual counter-party during a project?
FoodTech Experts (via Bright Green Partners) remains the prime contractor; you receive a single invoice and we handle all agreements with the experts behind the scenes.
How does contracting work?
We sign one master framework agreement with your company. All expert sub-contracts, NDAs and payments run through us, so your procurement team onboards only once.
How quickly can I connect with an expert?
You can typically connect with an expert within 48 hours. Our streamlined process ensures that you get the expertise you need quickly and efficiently.
