For the first time, three leading cultivated food industry associations are hosting a first-of-its-kind meeting this week in Singapore to formalize the launch of a global alliance to advance cultivated foods on the global stage.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The alliance is made up of the U.S.-based Alliance for Meat, Poultry, and Seafood Innovation<\/a> (AMPS Innovation), the APAC Society for Cellular Agriculture<\/a> (APAC-SCA), and Cellular Agriculture Europe<\/a> (CAE) and represents 31 of the leading cultivated meat, seafood, and dairy companies. According to alternative protein think tank the Good Food Institute\u2019s database, there are currently more than 120 startups<\/a> working on cultivated food globally, and collectively they have raised<\/a> over $2 billion in funding to recreate animal protein at a fraction of the emissions, water and land cost of industrial agriculture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In an email statement, Mirte Gosker, Managing Director of GFI APAC, <\/strong>told Green Queen<\/em> that \u201cglobal challenges require global solutions. By bringing together regional industry coalitions from Europe, the US, and Asia Pacific, this timely, new worldwide alliance has the potential to be a game-changer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n At a meeting held during Singapore International Agri-Food Week (SIAW), the leaders and management committees of each organization, including Sandhya Sriram Ph.D., APAC-SCA (Shiok Meats), Robert E. Jones, Cellular Agriculture Europe (Mosa Meat) and David Tonucci Ph.D., AMPS Innovation (SCiFi Foods), will discuss how to better leverage the new tripartite alliance to push forward regional synergies, better advocate for regulatory frameworks and communicate more effectively about the benefits of cellular agriculture.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHistoric Meeting at SIAW<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
