MyriaMeat presents a world first: real pork without slaughtering

Berlin/Göttingen - The German biotech start-up MyriaMeat GmbH was the first company in the world to present a laboratory-grown pork fillet made from pig cells without the need to kill an animal at an event organized by the SPRIND Federal Agency for Leap Innovations in Berlin.

The highlight: MyriaMeat relies on 100% real meat without hybrid admixtures of soy or other plant substances. "Our meat is free from plant-based additives and genetic modifications," says Dr. Malte Tiburcy, co-founder of MyriaMeat and Head of Research at the University of Göttingen.

Developed in the laboratory at the Life Science Factory in Göttingen, this pure cultivated meat marks a decisive step towards a more ethical and environmentally friendly future of meat production. "Our unique iPSC pipeline enables us to obtain stable stem cell cultures from a single, harmless biopsy. Our vision is to redefine meat consumption in line with the needs of a growing world population and environmental protection, while significantly reducing CO2 emissions from meat production," says Managing Director Florian Hüttner.

"Our company is now about implementation, not more basic research, and we have proven this with our prototype, which was developed in Göttingen in just one year."

"At MyriaMeat, we have built a platform not only for the production of high-quality and pure meat, but also for a variety of other meat-based products and are an ideal partner for the development of innovative foods with alternative proteins," emphasizes Florian Hüttner.

Thanks to the founders' investments and funding from the SPRIND Federal Agency for Leap Innovations, MyriaMeat has achieved a significant technological milestone with the presentation of the pork fillet prototype, which marks the transition from basic research to application.

MyriaMeat is currently in talks with industrial partners and potential investors to prepare for scaling up and a first tasting before the end of the year.
