3 years agoWe’re using ground-breaking cell technologies to revolutionise global food production - starting with pork
Powered by breakthrough technology, our vision of a mouth-watering, affordable and healthy protein is fast approaching - we’ve pioneered a strategy to scale cultivated meat that eliminates the industry’s largest cost driver with zero genetic engineering.
Previously known as Higher Steaks Ltd, we’ve successfully scaled from a compact start-up to a dynamic company of 50+ creative scientists, engineers and operators, committed to a massive takeover of the food industry. We’ve developed a scalable production process that can cut costs, drastically reduce waste materials and improve the health of consumers.
We’ve raised capital totalling $37M from Balderton, Lowercarbon Capital, RedAlpine, Sam Altman (Open AI founder) and Max Altman as well as the UK government through a $1.2M Innovate UK grant.
From the cell to the sizzle, our Uncommon Bacon and Uncommon Belly are packed full of nutritious goodness and fantastic flavour; paving the way for an Uncommonly good future of delicious, healthy and sustainable meat.
Unleash your creativity and join us!
