CATALYST™ program

Partner with Ingredion to accelerate new food product development for a greater chance of success

Food and beverages manufacturers continually face a dual challenge: Getting on-trend products to market faster, while reducing the chance of launch failure. Ingredion's CATALYST™ program provides a holistic solution, involving an ecosystem of co-creation partners who work together to speed the development of more successful products.

Leveraging Ingredion's unique role as a services and solutions partner, we connect the right cross-functional team — including consumers. co-manufacturers, and even other ingredients suppliers — to help ensure successful collaboration without silos throughout the development process. Discover how the CATALYST program:

  • Brings together all the stakeholders and resources for rapid food product development
  • Involves the consumer's voice to validate assumptions, iterate prototypes
  • Flexes to meet your needs, whether end-to-end or focused support
  • Can help at every stage, from ideation and insights to prototyping and line trials

Driving co-creation success without the silos

The CATALYST program's co-creation process goes beyond traditional ways of collaboration, tapping a cross-functional team of partners to drive more success at every stage of your development process — from insights, to concepts and prototypes, to scale-up, co-manufacturing and launch.

Keeping your consumer front and center

The consumer's voice is integral to the program's partner ecosystem, providing key feedback for quicker prototyping — and helping compress the usual time to achieve ready-to-launch results from months to just weeks.

Customized to your product innovation challenges

Need CATALYST program assistance only in certain areas, such as prototyping or scale-up? We can help. The program is designed to flex to your unique situation and needs — and not lock you into a one-size-fits-all solution.

A complete product development solution

The CATALYST program brings together all the resources you need to suceed, including comprehensive support from Ingredion in-house resources and external partners, and priority access to pilot plant facilities. Plus, our agnostic, unbiased approach enables ingredient sourcing beyond Ingredion’s broad toolkit.
