Briefly

Believer Meats, formerly Future Meat, is pioneering the development of cultured meat, which could dramatically reduce the environmental impacts associated with traditional meat production. In a groundbreaking achievement, Koby Nahmias confirmed their lab-grown meat can be produced for under $6 per pound, utilizing significantly fewer resources — 80% less greenhouse gas emissions, 99% less land, and 96% less water. The company raised a record $347 million to construct its first US production facility, marking a pivotal step towards making lab-grown meat a mainstream option available in stores by 2023.
With the potential to produce low-cholesterol and environmentally friendly meat alternatives, Believer Meats is set to revolutionize the meat industry.
