Luxembourg, Sept 5, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Moolec Science SA (NASDAQ:MLEC) ("The Company", "Moolec"), a science-based food ingredient company, announced today the harvest confirmation of US campaigns for genetically engineered plant-grown products GLASO™ and Piggy Sooy™ during October 2024.GLASO™ and Piggy Sooy™ US Harvest AnnouncementGLASO™ (gamma-linolenic acid -GLA- in safflower oil) campaign located in Idaho consists of 600 planted acres of genetically modified safflower, mainly for commercial purposes. As a result of the harvest, Moolec is expecting to produce between 300 to 400 tons of safflower seeds that contain high levels of GLA. To allocate most of the upcoming GLASO™ production, Moolec has secured an offtake agreement with a major global CPG company, targeting the US market in 2025. Following a successful and rigorous audit from Moolec's CPG customer, production is set to begin in late 2024.The Company is also developing a broader commercial strategy to reach larger markets and clients. Moolec's GLASO™ product contains almost 3 times more GLA than conventional sources such as borage and primrose oil, making it the most concentrated GLA oil available on the market.Piggy Sooy™ (porcine myoglobin in soybean seeds) field trials are being carried out in 3 different US locations: Ohio, Missouri and Iowa. Main purposes for the campaign are product development (sampling), seed increase and gathering of environmental and regulatory data to continue Moolec's US-FDA approval pathway. The Team also projects a remarkable first open field performance for its bioengineered soybean Piggy Sooy™ after recent approval for cultivation from USDA-APHIS. This has set an unprecedented milestone in biotechnology last April, with Moolec becoming the first Molecular Farming company to obtain this kind of clearance for food crops growing animal proteins in US territory.Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder Martín Salinas stated: "Our commitment to scaling Moolec's Molecular Farming Technology is demonstrated by our GLASO™ campaign and the field trials of Piggy Sooy™. These efforts not only reinforce our position as pioneers in the industry but also lay the foundation for sustainable solutions in agriculture and biotechnology." He then finished by remarking: "One acre of Piggy Sooy™ could potentially produce pork meat proteins equivalent to 10 pigs, reducing water footprint, land usage and CO2 emissions. This is a clear demonstration on how we promote environmental improvements throughout all our operations. Our aim is to heal the meat production system."Contact InformationPress & Mediacomms@moolecscience.comInvestor Relationsir@moolecscience.comRelated FilesMoolec Confirms US Harvest And Promising Yields For Plant-Grown Products GLASO™ And Piggy Sooy™ In October - 2024.09.05SOURCE: Moolec Science Copyright 2024 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

HONG KONG, Sept 5, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - A new report has found that 99% of mainland-based businesses have made a commitment towards sustainable investment over the next three years. Hong Kong has emerged as their first choice for sourcing the necessary range of related professional services.The findings come as part of Seizing Opportunities in China’s Sustainable Investment, a joint research report published today by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA).Hong Kong: Key facilitator of sustainable developmentThe report was compiled after the two organisations surveyed 283 companies on their medium-term sustainability objectives. The research programme, which also included in-depth interviews with key industry representatives, aimed to evaluate the progress made by China-based businesses, as they align themselves with the Central Government's environmental priorities and explore the possibilities offered by green financing.Commenting on the significance of the survey, Irina Fan, Director of HKTDC Research, said: ‘As Asia’s leading green finance hub, Hong Kong has the potential to make a significant and lasting impact on Mainland China’s move to an ever more sustainable and environmentally friendly future.’‘With the city’s own progress to establishing itself as an international green finance and technology centre gathering pace, it is gratifying to see that its success to date is being widely recognised across the mainland. This vote of confidence confirms we are on the right trajectory to work with businesses throughout the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA), within China as a whole and along the Belt and Road countries/economies.’Christina So, Head of ACCA Hong Kong and GBA Lead, said: ‘This study has delivered invaluable insights into the evolution of sustainable business practices in China, making it an essential reference tool for anyone looking to explore business opportunities throughout the country. It also underscores the need for a high standard of competence and a clear understanding of the sustainability agenda among finance and accounting professionals, something that we at ACCA are committed to delivering.’Healthy sustainable business practicesAnother key research finding was that the vast majority of survey participants are prioritising meeting the government’s policy objectives in the environmental impact space, especially with regard to substantially reducing carbon emissions.Many companies also highlighted other benefits of adopting greener business practices, including enhanced access to green finance and establishing positive brand values on an international basis.Barriers to sustainable investmentDespite the overwhelmingly upbeat sentiment with regard to adopting and implementing green protocols, many research respondents also reported ongoing challenges. These challenges are often slowing the rate at which agreed measures can be fully actioned. Chief among these concerns are cost pressures – cited by 82% of respondents – with an expectation that any return on investment in enhanced sustainability practices may not be evident in the short term.While many respondents were enthusiastic about exploring green financing, there was also uncertainty over how best to access these channels. Regardless of this, some 70% of respondents agreed that they were considering using a green financing channel to meet their future needs.Responding to the challenges facing the mainland business community, Wing Chu, Principal Economist of the HKTDC, said: ‘Despite the cost pressures highlighted, a major proportion of corporations is committed to investing in sustainability practices as a way to generate long-term value.’‘Interestingly, only a smaller fraction currently perceives the lack of knowledge and talent as challenges. However, they are keen on tapping into green financing to address their future needs. This approach is especially noteworthy, as numerous corporations are set to expand their investment in China and are committed to executing this growth sustainably.’Opportunities in green financingThe awareness of green financing options in China is still relatively low, with some 47%-56% of respondents indicating a lack of familiarity with many of the available options. Some 71% of respondents, however, maintained that they were willing to make wider use of green financing channels, including green loans and green bonds, while reducing their reliance on traditional financing options.Detailing how the local professional services sector has evolved to meet these challenges, Sam Chen, Regional Lead, Policy & Insights for ACCA China, said: ‘As businesses increasingly prioritise sustainable practices, understanding the local context and utilising green funding and technology has become crucial. There is now a wider understanding that a comprehensive approach to sustainability is essential, if businesses are to progress towards a more sustainable future, while continuing to deliver in value terms.’Respondents and interviewees for this research report were drawn from ACCA’s member community in China, which comprises finance professionals across a variety of key sectors, working at the forefront of an ever-changing business landscape.To further capture the green opportunities along the region, the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) and the HKTDC are organising the ninth edition of the Belt and Road Summit, which will be held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre on 11-12 September.The event will gather green and ESG experts to facilitate knowledge exchange and cooperation on green development and sustainable finance, while showcasing Hong Kong's green industry capabilities globally. Under the theme of Building a Connected, Innovative and Green Belt and Road, there will be thematic breakout sessions on green development, infrastructure and financing.Seizing Opportunities in China’s Sustainable Investment (full report):https://research.hktdc.com/en/article/MTc5MTE4NzAzOQPhoto download: https://bit.ly/3z7laqvThe HKTDC and the ACCA today jointly released a research report entitled Seizing Opportunities in China’s Sustainable Investment.

The property was subsequently rebranded as Dao by Dorsett Aparthotel in 2022, which led to its GOP doubling in the first year after rebranding, resulting in a 25% increase in valuation.About Far East Consortium International LimitedFar East Consortium International Limited (“FEC”, together with its subsidiaries, the “Group”) has been listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange since 1972 (HKEx Stock Code: 35.HK).
