Innodal wins 2024 Governor General Innovation Award

Quebec-based Innodal receives the the 2024 Governor General Innovation Award for its anti-Listeria solution, Inneo.

“When François and I first came up with the idea of starting the company in 2017, we never could have imagined that it would bear fruit at this level. Our vision of offering natural solutions for better management of food production and consumption has been and continues to be the driving force behind our commitment. Healthier and less damaging food for everyone was our vision. It has become our mission,” said Laurent Dallaire, CEO of Innodal.

Inneo is the first antimicrobial protein approved by Health Canada. It acts as a shield and eliminates the risks associated with contamination by Listeria monocytogenes in a variety of food products.

The Governor General’s Awards for Innovation aim to honour excellence in innovation and inspire Canadians to become innovative entrepreneurs. The awards are presented to companies whose innovations are exceptional, transformative and have a positive impact on the quality of life in Canada.
