PLT Health Solutions, Inc., Morristown, NJ, has opened the third edition of the company’s PLTNext Global Search for Innovation program. The global search is designed to connect PLT with ingredient and technology innovators to assist in product development and commercialization. As part of the program, PLT is putting its track record of developing and launching successful branded ingredients into supplement, food & beverage markets to work for companies that meet the program’s criteria and are selected for further collaboration.
The Global Search for Innovation allows selected companies and organizations to work with PLT’s scientific, regulatory, intellectual property, product development and sales experts to help advance the market-readiness of their concepts and create commercialization strategies that deliver market penetration and profitability. In this third edition of the PLTNEXT Global Search, PLT is emphasizing companies that work in the sports nutrition space as well as clean label ingredients. The Global Search for Innovation is open to university research programs, early-stage or regional companies and other ingredient/technology developers—anywhere in the world. This round of PLTNEXT is open from March 15 to June 15 of this year. Interested parties can apply at PLT’s website www.PLTNEXT.com.
According to Devin Stagg, vice president, strategy & business development at PLT Health Solutions, PLTNEXT is the company’s on-going business-wide commitment to innovation in the health and wellness space. “In North America and around the world, PLT Health Solutions has a reputation as an ingredient innovator with consumer products companies. What distinguishes our efforts, however, is the comprehensive vetting of ingredients for their scientific, regulatory and quality systems readiness and our ability to bring buttoned up solutions to our customers. The PLTNEXT Global Search for Innovation is all about putting this infrastructure and expertise to work for the introduction of promising new ingredients and technologies.”
