Bythos
Bythos utilised side streams from the fish processing industry to create ingredients for human and animal wellbeing. Bioactive molecules with health-promoting properties were extracted for use in pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and cosmetics. Remaining organic matter was converted into sustainable fish feed. The main goal was to transfer knowledge to the private sector to foster new value chains and reduce organic waste through the establishment of high-tech startups.
