DAIZ, Inc.

DAIZ is a global developer and producer of plant-based protein known for its breakthrough sprouting technology that can create desired tastes and nutrient compounds in soybeans and other plant seeds. The Ochiai Germination Method (OGM), our patented and proprietary technology developed through more than 25 years of research in plant science, has enabled DAIZ to custom-design highly nutritional raw materials for meat alternatives that naturally have great flavors and textures without using any additives. We are also exploring the application of OGM to the field of drug discovery by combining it with the latest techniques in artificial intelligence. • Food Innovation: "Miracle Meat," our proprietary plant-based protein product, can be easily modified to closely mimic the tastes and textures of various types of meat products. Today, Miracle Meat can be found in products of some of the largest food manufacturers in Japan and elsewhere in the world. • Drug Discovery: Plant-based secondary metabolites have a long history in modern pharmacology. By harnessing the power of AI and the company's patented technologies, DAIZ is exploring an entirely new chemical space in organic molecules for therapeutic research. Our mission is to eradicate world hunger and malnutrition. With the global population being projected to surpass 10 billion by 2050, we cannot continue to rely on the traditional protein sources in meat products to adequately feed the world. At DAIZ, we strive to provide plant-based protein solutions to this problem.DAIZは、穀物や豆の味を自在に変えることのできる独自の発芽技術を使い、栄養価の高いタンパク質を開発・生産するフードテックのベンチャー企業です。味や歯触りが牛・豚・鶏に限りなく近い植物肉「ミラクルミート」は、ニチレイや味の素を始めとする大手食品製造会社の製品に原材料として使われています。また創薬・探索情報となる大規模フィトアレキシン（植物二次代謝物質）の開発、提供にも取り組んでいます。
