      WheyUp

      This project falls under the agrifood sector, focusing on sustainable food innovation and dairy processing. It introduces a functional sports drink developed from cheese whey, a nutrient-rich by-product of cheese production that is often discarded as waste. The innovation transforms this underutilized resource into a high-value, protein-rich beverage designed to support muscle recovery and hydration for active consumers and athletes.

      The project promotes circular economy principles, reduces environmental waste, and enhances the competitiveness of Lebanon’s agrifood industry by integrating scientific research, technological development, and industrial application. It represents a bridge between academic research and commercial production, aligning with Lebanon Innovate’s goals of fostering intellectual property development, knowledge transfer, and market-oriented innovation in the food sector.
