Investment into Innovative Food – which includes cultured meat, plant-based and fermented proteins, and novel ingredients – has been bolstered by Covid-19.
The Good Food Institute Asia-Pacific has also named who it believes to be the top 35 alt-protein investors in the region, and calls for more upstream focus on areas like raw materials.
CEO Yuki Hanyu’s vision encompasses low-cost DIY protein production in the home, a meat microbrewery on every corner, and cell ag in space stations.
The raise — which brings Meatable’s total funding to date to $13 million — comes mainly from an existing investor base and The European Commission also contributed funds through its Eurostars Programme.
