Hydrosome Labs, a nanotechnology company, has won the first round of the Global Food Tech Awards with its innovative ultrafine bubbles. These bubbles, which are smaller than a champagne bubble, are capable of delivering nutrients and gasses to cells, boosting production of precision fermentation and improving nutritionals. The technology has the potential to alter the texture of food, speed up production, and reduce the need for expensive or less desirable ingredients. The company is exploring the use of different gases, such as those that could enhance taste and sensory experiences, and has found that the addition of ultrafine bubbles in water can help modulate the gut microbiome in a positive way, reducing inflammation. The technology also has potential applications in the cosmetics industry to improve the feel and permeability of topical products. The company is partnering with celebrity Cindy Crawford to launch a line of Meaningful Beauty products using its technology. The Global Food Tech Awards will continue with the EMEA heat in March 2025 and the APAC heat in August, with the global champion to be announced at the end of the year.
At the Global Food Tech Awards Americas, Hydrosome Labs’ innovative ultrafine bubbles made a splash, winning top honors.
