About us
Based in Berkeley, CA, UPSIDE Foods grows meat, poultry, and
seafood directly from animal cells. - These products are not vegan
or vegetarian-they are delicious meat, made without the need to
raise and slaughter billions of animals. UPSIDE Foods recently
became the first company in the world to receive the US FDA
greenlight for cultivated meat, and UPSIDE's cultivated chicken
will be available to consumers following USDA inspection and label
approval. -
Founded as the world's first cultivated meat company in 2015,
UPSIDE Foods (formerly Memphis Meats) has achieved numerous
industry-defining milestones, including being the first company to
produce multiple species of meat (beef, chicken, and duck). The
company believes that people shouldn't have to choose between the
foods they love and a thriving planet, and is working to build a
better food system with access to delicious, humane, and
sustainable meat, poultry, and seafood. UPSIDE Foods has won
various industry awards, including New York Times' Good Tech
Awards, FastCo's Next Big Thing in Tech, and the Best and Brightest
Companies to Work For in the Nation by the National Association for
Business Resources. UPSIDE Foods has raised a total of $608
million, including from the Abu Dhabi Growth Fund (ADG), Baillie
Gifford, Bill Gates, Cargill, John Doerr, John Mackey, Kimbal and
Christiana Musk, Norwest, Richard Branson, Softbank, Temasek,
Threshold, Tyson Foods, and others. -
