By enabling the production of identical meat proteins entirely produced within the biomass of plants, and designed and produced to enhance the taste, nutritional benefits and quality of existing plant-based offerings, we enable wider adoption of products that directly contribute to bettering of our climate emergency. Moreover, we are demonstrating an entirely new production platform and ecosystem, ultimately powered by photosynthesis, directly addressing the future of agricultural production and the alternative meat industry</ns2:abstractText></ns2:project>
