RETHINKING AGRICULTURE
SCALEABLE. COST EFFECTIVE. GENTLE TO ENVIRONMENT.
For thousands of years, humans have integrated meat as one of the main sources of food. Depending on the regional conditions, a wide variety of eating habits and cultures were created. When Homo erectus started making tools and lighting a fire around 1.5 million years ago, the early humans became familiar with the taste of roasted meat - this triggered the necessary motivation to boost the eating habits of the early people.
We love meat and we are loaning for it, but its production has become unsustainable. Due to the growing population, we won’t be able to feed the people in the future, since land and resources are only limited available. Animal agriculture uses over 70% of the world’s habitable land, 30% of our freshwater supply, and is mainly responsible for deforestation.
Innocent Meat faces this challenge by innovating agriculture. We foster a novel solution for cellular agriculture, that is scalable, gentle to environment and cost efficient. Our cell-based meat is the meat everybody knows and does not compromise on nutritional value, aroma or flavour.

GAME CHANGING TECHNOLOGY
Innocent Meat pioneering supply chain starts with GMO-free animal cells that grow endlessly.
Our cells derive from happy range animals and cells are grown in pioneering bioreactors nourish with plant-based cell media. This way, in the future, our technology replaces slaughter factories and meat processing companies. Products are exactly like the good old meet everybody knows, just produced in a different way.
Our innovative technology is sustainable and cost-effective. Short and fast growth cycles, grant meat processors to adjust their businesses rapidly to changing markets.
1.) FAST GROW CYCLES
In order to maintain constantly the same quality, our cells grow endless without genetic modification. Our cells grow fast. Thus, the manufacturing process lasts only couple days. This way producers can adapt rapidly to volatile market conditions.
2.) REDUCING PRODUCTION COSTS
Innocent Meat uses biodegradable and digestible scaffolds to grow cells. Our pioneering bioreactor and process design effectually reduces the volume of cell media used in manufacturing, by eliminating waste products. This way, we leverage production costs.
3.) EMPOWERING FOOD MANUFACTURES
Innocent Meat empowers food producers, meat processers, and retailers to manufacture cell-based meat and process it in their own factories. This way we leverage down high capital demands.
NICE TO MEET YOU!
Our team is a synergetic mix of entrpeneurs, innovators, researchers and biotechs, all of whom have one thing in common: we love meat, but today's production lines are no longer contemporary. Researchers have shown that it works differently, so we do it.
LAURA GERTENBACH (CEO & COFOUNDER): Laura loves good meat. She grew up with agriculture, has experience in meat retail business.With Innocent Meat, she aims to bring traditional agriculture to next level.
DR. PHILIPP WOLTERS ( RESEARCH & COFOUNDER): Philipp lives interdisciplinarity and likes to try out everything himself. That's why he has among other things founded a start-up for local and handcrafted sausages. With Innocent Meat he takes the next logical step in the future of meat production.
