Leading the digital transformation of nutrition and health to shape the future through

Digital and AI

Advanced AI and simulation technologies accelerating product innovation in sustainable nutrition

At Danone, we’re transforming the future of nutrition through data, AI, and advanced digital tools. By embedding these technologies across our R&I ecosystem—from digital twins and virtual labs to smart packaging and predictive modeling—we accelerate innovation and deliver targeted, sustainable solutions that bring health through food to more people, faster.

Digital modeling and data science transforming nutrition through advanced analytics

Data-driven innovation for better nutrition

Danone’s R&I teams are transforming product development through a data, AI, computational science and digital modeling. Virtual labs equipped with digital twin models allow us to simulate biological responses and optimize nutritional formulations. These technologies help us design more targeted products adapted to diverse consumer needs—faster and more efficiently.

Strengthening our expertise thanks to in silico technologies

We are at the forefront of new advances in the field of molecular and protein engineering. By simulating complex biological systems and product-process interactions digitally, we significantly reduce the need for physical trials, shortening our innovation cycles and improving formulation precision. Predictive modeling tools enable us to clearly demonstrate product benefits, while automated patent processes accelerate the protection of our scientific advances. For example, our computational approaches allow us to predict protein structure or optimize food formulations for stability and texture.
