Multus Media secures £1.5m seed funding for cultivated meat growth media
Zero Carbon Capital has backed Multus Media in its latest funding round.
Multus Media uses computational biology to develop sustainable growth media for the cultivated meat sector.
Multus Media has secured £1.5m in a seed round featuring investment from Zero Carbon Capital. The company plans to apply the capital to further its work in computational biology, producing growth media required for cultivated meat manufacture.
The London-based business aims to address environmental challenges associated with traditional livestock farming by supplying sustainable alternatives for cellular agriculture. Cultivated meat offers a low-carbon trajectory compared to conventional beef production, though growth media remains a significant component of overall expenses and emissions.
Zero Carbon Capital backed the round, highlighting the potential for cultivated products to reduce agricultural greenhouse gas outputs as global demand for meat continues to rise toward 2050.
