Based in Berkeley, CA, UPSIDE Foods (formerly known as Memphis Meats) is developing a way to grow real meat, poultry and seafood directly from animal cells, without the need to raise and slaughter animals. These products are not vegetarian, plant-based or meat alternatives -- they are real meat, made without the animal. Founded as the world`s first cultivated meat company in 2015, UPSIDE Foods 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 where everybody has access to delicious, humane, and sustainable meat. 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.
Do Good Foods is creating a more sustainable food system at scale that combats climate change with urgency and action. Founded by the Kamine Family, Do Good Foods uses technologically advanced infrastructure to reduce food waste by collecting grocery surplus that would otherwise go to landfills (after human donations occur), converts it to animal feed, and uses it to create carbon-reduced, delicious food that consumers can purchase at their local supermarket. This closed-loop system delivers an economic and environmental impact that is scaling nationwide. This new way of upcycling surplus grocery food empowers consumers to be a part of the solution to fight food waste and combat climate change with their everyday purchases. Do Good Foods, Good for Plate & Planet™.
