Meat4All's goal is to scale up cultured meat production technology, work on market acceptance and perform safety assessment tests to allow the industrialization and commercialization of poultry cultured meat. This project will allow to supply the ever-increasing global demand for animal protein while addressing the main drawbacks of factory farming industry: Health issues, environmentalsustainability and animal welfare. By scaling up this technology Meat4All will create a new area of development that makes possible for the European industry to harness this market high potential, fostering competitiveness and creating growth throughout the EU. BF, with the collaboration of OT (peptone-based supplements) and NOB (SIGMA group meat processors) proposes this project in order to take Cultured Meat production a step closer to the market. This project will allow BF to become a worldwide leader in Cultured Meat with the necessary production capacity to supply the meat processing industry, starting with NOB’s final innovative products. The project objectives are: • Scale up production process from 135 Kg scale to 10 Tons scale per year by 2021• Maintain large nutritional value for large scale produced quantities • 100% animal free origin culture media • Maintain Health claims up to the final processed products•>80% bioreactor yields to keep prices within the acceptable level• 100% traceable Non-GMO animal cells• Meat4All will produce cultured meat in a raw format to be processed into consumer products as sausages or cold cuts. The average target selling price will be 6 €/kg in 2023• Create markets leaders• Perform consumer product trials (tasting) aimed at ascertaining and predicting market and consumer demand.
