Delft Netherlands cultivated pork/beef with Opti-Ox iPSC technology (4-day production); $95M total ($35M Agronomics Series B 2023 + Betagro/€7.6M NL Innovation Credit 2024) targeting Singapore commercial approval competing with GOOD Meat.
About
Meatable is a Delft, Netherlands-based cultivated meat company — backed with approximately $95 million in total funding including a $35 million Series B in 2023 led by Agronomics with Invest-NL, plus a €7.6 million Netherlands Enterprise Agency Innovation Credit and strategic investment from Betagro Ventures (Thailand's major food group) in 2024 — developing cultivated pork and beef products using its proprietary Opti-Ox technology that enables commercial-scale cultivated meat production in as little as four days, compared to weeks or months required by competing approaches. Meatable's technology is based on induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) — derived from a single cell sample without ongoing animal procedures and capable of indefinite replication — providing the cell source scalability that is a critical bottleneck for cultivated meat economics. Following the first public tasting of cultivated pork sausages in Singapore in 2023, Meatable appointed industry veteran Jeff Tripician as CEO in late 2024 to lead commercialization. Founded in 2018.
