🥩 Swiss startup sallea is developing 3D plant-based scaffolding that can act as a flexible framework to create whole cuts of cultivated meat and help the industry scale up production and development. Full story: https://bit.ly/3YBBLM7 Sallea's scaffolds enable cultivated meat producers to tailor the size, texture, shape, and nutritional profile of their products, creating the next generation of whole-cut cultivated meat products, says Sallea CEO and co-founder Simona Fehlmann. Following the recent close of a $2.6 million funding round, the startup said it is currently collaborating with multiple companies to develop a proof-of-concept before bringing their technology to market in the next four to five years. Companies like this, who focus solely on providing an innovative solution to a technological hurdle rather than developing and selling their own end product, are a critical part of the cultivated meat ecosystem that can accelerate progress across the field 🙌 For more on the science of scaffolding in cultivated meat development, check out our deep dive: https://bit.ly/3Ulz8fT

By harnessing the power of alternative protein technologies, the U.S. can build a resilient food system and promote national security for future generations. For an in-depth discussion about the connection between food security and national security and the potential for alternative proteins to enhance both, check out our Substack post between GFI’s legislative director Pepin Tuma and Justin Kolbeck, a former U.S. Foreign Service Officer and co-founder and CEO of cultivated seafood startup Wildtype → https://bit.ly/3KZMSHZ
