UMAMI Bioworks is building the discovery and development platform for scalable production of cultivated seafood that keeps endangered, threatened, and protected (ETP) species in the ocean while providing consumers with sustainable seafood without compromises. Through systems engineering-led thinking, we will accelerate discovery and industrialization and enable local, price competitive, scale production of novel cell cultivation products with our automated, modular production system.

At Novoloop, we envision a truly circular world without waste, where materials are the building blocks for new things. So instead of ending up in a landfill, hard-to-recycle plastics are remade into something better, something beautiful: an infinite loop of possibility. We call it Lifecycling™, and it’s our platform that uses almost any plastic waste to make performance materials that are molecularly identical to conventional products. We want to create a wonderful world of endless possibilities – especially for plastics that have no future today.

California Cultured is a food company creating sustainable, lab-grown cocoa that is less bitter and requires less sugar to be tasty.
