Mosa Meat unveiled the world's first cultivated beef burger in 2013 and now that regulatory applications are underway in the EU and Singapore, the pioneering cultivated meat company opened up a crowdfunding campaign on Crowdcube.
With the funds raised through this cultivated meat crowdfunding campaign, Mosa Meat will accelerate the research and development of its products, secure regulatory approvals, and support the marketing and production of its burgers for consumers. Mosa Meat cultivates real beef from animal cells and delivers a familiar product while reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and the usage of land and water.
There are restrictions as to who can invest in the crowdfunding campaign, and supporters must be over the age of 18, and not residents of Russia, Canada, the USA or Japan.
