Profiles of the 10 top global cultured meat companies

An unsustainable demand for meat has led to companies looking for alternative solutions to conventional farming methods in order to change the way we eat and think about meat. For biotech companies in particular, given recent advancements in technology, it has presented an opportunity to further explore lab-grown meat. 

Cultured meat is grown using cells acquired from animals by biopsy without the animal being harmed. These harvested cells are then placed in test tubes or bioreactors with a growth medium, which contains nutrients for the cells to grow and multiply. Eventually, the cells form muscle fibers, resulting in ‘lab-grown meat’. 

In this article, we take a look at 10 cultured meat companies driving the shift towards sustainable food systems.
