Cell4Food was recently added to the BioInformant Global Database of Cultured ("Clean") Meat Companies, 2025! 🌍 This is the world’s first database to include all known cultured meat companies, marking an important milestone in the evolution of cellular agriculture. 🌱 Cultured meat, seafood, and other cellular agriculture products offer essential alternatives to sustainably meet the world’s growing food demand. The goal isn’t to replace the entire food chain but to create innovative options that will be vital as the population expands. We’re proud to be one of many cellular agriculture companies contributing to this movement! ✨ 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gfazkkBS #CellularAgriculture #CulturedMeat #Innovation #FutureOfFood #Sustainability

🔍 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐀𝐠𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞? Cellular agriculture is a method of producing animal products directly from cells, offering an ethical complement to the food supply without the need to raise or sacrifice animals. 𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐭 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤? Cellular agriculture can be divided into two main processes: 🧫 Cellular Process: This approach involves culturing cells taken from animals (or even plants) to produce muscle, fat, or other tissues in a controlled environment. The result? Cell-based meat, seafood, chocolate, leather, and even coffee—all without the animal. 🧬 Acellular Process: Unlike the cellular approach, the acellular process skips growing entire cells. Instead, it focuses on producing specific proteins or molecules—like casein or egg whites—using microorganisms such as yeast or bacteria. Through fermentation, we can replicate animal-based ingredients with precision. Here at Cell4Food, we believe that cellular agriculture can transform our food systems and lower our environmental impact. 🌍💚 𝐖𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦'𝐬 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞? 👉 Swipe through the carousel to see what cellular agriculture means to us!

Our CTO, Filipa Soares, proudly represented Cell4Food and the field of cellular agriculture as a driving force for food innovation at the 2nd Annual Meeting of the VIIAFOOD Agenda! This inspiring event brought together a diverse group of stakeholders dedicated to researching and producing alternative ingredients and foods that are shaping the future. We were thrilled to share how Cell4Food is contributing to the field and demonstrating how these innovative solutions can complement existing foods to help build a more sustainable and resilient food system. 🍽️🌱 A heartfelt thank you to Deolinda Silva for the kind invitation, to the organizers for hosting such a successful event, and to all the panellists who contributed to the engaging and thought-provoking discussions. 🤝 #Cell4Food #Innovation #CellularAgriculture #FutureOfFood #Sustainability

🌟 This week marks another important milestone for cellular agriculture! Vow has officially received approval in Hong Kong for their innovative cell-based quail product, 𝑭𝒐𝒓𝒈𝒆𝒅 𝑮𝒓𝒂𝒔—a breakthrough moment for sustainable food innovation. Congratulations to the entire Vow team for this remarkable achievement! It’s inspiring to see the progress being made as we collectively reimagine our global food system. 🚀 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dPtqqqcH #CellularAgriculture #SustainableFood #Innovation #FutureOfFood

📢 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟐𝟕𝐭𝐡! Our CTO, Filipa Soares, will be joining the 3rd seminar of Taste The Future, organized by The University of Lisbon Alt Protein Project at the Instituto Superior Técnico, Alameda campus, in Lisbon. Filipa will be sharing her journey, from studying Biological Engineering at Instituto Superior Técnico to her current role at Cell4Food. Her story includes gaining invaluable experience abroad before returning to Portugal to share her knowledge and contribute to advancing science locally. 🔍 She will also showcase the innovative work being done at Cell4Food and the strides we’ve made in sustainable seafood production. 🐙 We are passionate about promoting education in our field and look forward to answering any questions from students and attendees. 🐟 If you’re curious about Cell4Food and how biotechnology is revolutionizing seafood through cutting-edge food technology, this is a seminar you won’t want to miss! #Cell4Food #TasteTheFuture #CellularAgriculture #AlternativeProteins #SustainableSeafood #FutureOfFood

🐟 Rui Rosa, Eduardo Sampaio, researchers from MARE - Centro de Ciências do Mar e do Ambiente and colleagues, have discovered that octopuses can cooperate with other fish species, even teaming up to hunt smaller fish and mollusks. This unexpected partnership, published in Nature Ecology & Evolution, shows that octopuses might even recognize specific opportunistic fish and use their arms to deter or exclude them from the group—a behavior captured in the video below by Eduardo. 🔬 These findings highlight the importance of preserving octopuses in their natural habitats and promoting sustainable, ethical practices. At Cell4Food, we’re dedicated to developing cellular agriculture techniques to produce octopus products, allowing us to enjoy these dishes without impacting wild populations. It's an exciting time for sustainable seafood innovation! 🌍 🔗 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/dNriRKSb #Cell4Food #CellularAgriculture #FutureOfFood #SustainableSeafood

Our CTO, Filipa Soares, will be participating in the second meeting of the VIIAFOOD agenda at the Technological Forum of LISPOLIS in Lisbon! 📍 The roundtable, titled "𝐴𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑇𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑁𝑒𝑤 𝐼𝑛𝑔𝑟𝑒𝑑𝑖𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠," will cover a range of different topics in the food industry: flavors, food innovation, entrepreneurship, funding, and, of course, Cell4Food’s mission to advance cellular agriculture seafood products 🐟, starting with cellular OCTOPUS 🐙. #Cell4Food #Innovation #CellularAgriculture #FutureOfFood #Sustainability

🚨 Today, we address Hungary's recent proposal to ban cultivated meat, following Italy's lead last year. Such actions raise serious concerns about the future of sustainable food production in Europe. Despite no cellular agriculture products currently on the European market, there is strong scientific evidence supporting their safety, taste, and nutritional value. These bans lack a solid foundation. Innovations like cultivated meat aren't just alternatives; they are crucial for meeting the rising global food demand, as traditional supply chains already face immense pressure. The European Commission has rightly criticized these bans as "unjustified" and potentially damaging to the single market. As we strive for a more sustainable food system, embracing cellular agriculture is vital, not obstructing its progress. At Cell4Food, we are committed to advancing cellular seafood products, creating ethical and sustainable options to alleviate pressure on overfished marine ecosystems while prioritizing food safety and environmental responsibility. As the regulatory landscape evolves, it's essential for policymakers and consumers to understand the transformative benefits of these innovations for our collective future. Join us in advocating for a forward-thinking food system that meets tomorrow’s needs while respecting our planet’s resources. 🔗 Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/drbrjKEu #Cell4Food #CellularAgriculture #FutureOfFood #Sustainability
