Is There a Future for Cell-Based Meat?

The meat indus­try is one of the biggest con­trib­u­tors to cli­mate change, yet demand for poul­try, beef, pork, and oth­er ani­mal pro­teins con­tin­ues to rise. Although they’ve been a sol­id alter­na­tive, plant-based meats haven’t been able to emu­late the sen­so­ry and phys­i­cal prop­er­ties of ani­mal pro­tein.

Cul­ti­vat­ed meat close­ly resem­bles the real deal, while also pro­vid­ing envi­ron­men­tal ben­e­fits and pro­mot­ing sus­tain­abil­i­ty. While the indus­try is new and not with­out chal­lenges, it’s also ripe with invest­ment oppor­tu­ni­ties and the prospect of chang­ing the land­scape of the $1T meat mar­ket. We’re excit­ed to see how these appli­ca­tions progress over the next few years. Click here to down­load our research brief for more on the future of cell-based meat.
