Roquette India in Mumbai August 13, 2008
Sustainable trends and ways in the field of health and nutrition.
The very recent settling of Roquette in new premises in India, more precisely in Mumbai, requires taking into account specific trends, in terms of nutrition and health, of this amazing country, very welcoming and full of contrasts.
Frost & Sullivan, a global growth consulting company that partners with clients to support the development of innovative growth strategies, had invited Marie-Hélène Saniez-Degrave, Head Nutrition and Health research and development programs in Roquette, to give a talk in June 2008 at the Symposium "Creating value through Innovation".

This was a great opportunity to define what means "sustainable innovation" for Roquette through a synthetic presentation of the Research program NUTRAHUB®. The oral presentation was entitled "Sustainable innovation through innovative ingredients from vegetable sources".
- The Leguminous plants farming industry: this type of cultivation doesn't require for example much fertilizers, exhibits low needs for irrigation, allows extraction of proteins and micro-constituents without using any chemical solvent, and generates products at low risk of contamination (e.g. mycotoxines, pesticides) and not identified as major allergens.
- Exploring the Microalgae farming: this cultivation requires mainly CO2 and light, is a "hors-sol" type of farming, leads to production of dietary substitutes for fish farming. It comes within the scope of the exploration, extension and keeping of the biodiversity and will allow emerging of new functional bioactive components (for example anti-pathogenic micronutrients).
- The research on innovative functional products: these can be designed not only for preventing and reducing the risks of chronic illnesses linked to ageing and/or diets, but also for improving wellness and reducing suffering of ill people.
- Screening unknown richness of some dietary by-products still unexploited in human diet, to make them economically accessible to deficient populations.
