	<title>Get on board, because there’s no stopping the $3tn proteinmaxxing train</title>
	<link>https://www.bizcommunity.com/article/get-on-board-because-theres-no-stopping-the-3tn-proteinmaxxing-train-189236a</link>
	<description>Khlo&amp;#233; Kardashian’s Khloud protein snack brand is an example of what’s possible for the protein market. Starting with protein-packed popcorn, the brand has since branched out to protein chips with collagen. She’s right on the money. Much like Popeye gaining superhuman powers from spinach, the protein market shows no signs of slowing. According to Euromonitor International, global protein demand is projected to grow by 11% between 2024 and 2029.</description>

	<link>https://www.bizcommunity.com/article/leadership-lessons-from-the-women-at-philip-morris-sa-523920a</link>
	<description>Ask a senior South African businesswoman how she got where she is, and you rarely get a tidy answer.
