Rising meat/protein demand and awareness for environmental protection needs are driving changed outlooks within the meat industry. The growing need for alternative protein sources to combat meat shortages along with a fast-growing population is enhancing the need for cultured meat production. However, persistent technical challenges in manufacturing and in deriving low-cost end-products hampers rapid growth potential.End-consumers are shifting their focus towards sustainable lifestyles, seeking meat with lower environmental impacts than resource-intensive traditionally-farmed meat. The UK is set to become a world-leading developer of cultured meat, with a predicted 31% (£1.7bn) market-share by 2030, supporting 9,200-16,500 new jobs.QuestMeat and Multus are pioneering biotechnology start-ups within the cultivated meats sector. Together with UCL, this consortium will develop 'CULT-GRO', a formulation for cultured meat production.This project will respond to the cultivated meat production need and deliver more sustainable, lower-emission alternative protein sources, with faster production and adaptive supply strategies of proven formulations at-scale. This will enable the UK's cultivated meat market to respond to food supply-chain demands more rapidly, reducing carbon emissions and addressing the shortages in meat globally.This project is anticipated to deliver transformative effects for QuestMeat and Multus, and will lead to a huge impact on the UK's cultured meat supply-chain. CULT-GRO is an enabler to catalyse/accelerate the commercial implementation of new cultivated meat products and provide multiple interface points for cell-line development, ingredient suppliers and cultured meat manufacturers. This project will benefit the UK economy, generating local and export revenues and headcount growth across the cultivated meat sector.

肉/蛋白质需求的上升和对环境保护需求的意识正在推动肉类行业的前景。替代蛋白质来源对抗肉短缺以及快速增长的种群的需求日益增强，这增强了对培养的肉类生产的需求。但是，在制造业和推导低成本最终产品方面持续存在的技术挑战会阻碍快速增长的潜力。目的消费者将注意力转移到可持续的生活方式上，寻求与传统资源密集型养殖肉类相比，环境影响较低的肉。英国将成为世界领先的培养肉的开发商，到2030年预计将有31％（17亿英镑）的市场份额，支持9,200-16,500新的新工作。该联盟将与UCL一起发展为“邪教”，这是一种培养肉类生产的公式。该项目将响应耕种的肉类生产需求，并提供更可持续的，低排放的替代蛋白质来源，并具有更快的生产和适应性的供应策略，该蛋白具有验证的公式。这将使英国的培养肉类市场能够更快地应对食品供应链需求，从而减少碳排放并解决全球肉类的短缺。预计该项目将对QuestMeat和Multius产生变革性的影响，并对英国养成的肉类供应链产生巨大影响。 Cult-Gro是催化/加速新栽培肉类产品的商业实施的推动者，并为细胞线开发，备用供应商和培养的肉类制造商提供多个接口点。该项目将使英国经济受益，从而产生本地和出口揭示和耕种肉类部门的成长。
