The world’s demand for seafood is expected to more than double by 2050 & as of today, the demand for seafood already outstrips the spotty supply causing prices to spike making it unaffordable to the masses.
This is where cultivated or lab grown seafood comes into picture. Cultivated meat is real meat grown directly from animal cells. The process of making cultivated meat is similar to brewing beer, but instead of growing yeast or microbes, animal cells are grown.
The process starts by taking a small cell sample from live animals such as say prawns or shrimp.
From there, these cells are put in a clean and controlled environment and are fed with essential nutrients that they need to replicate naturally. In essence, the conditions that naturally exist inside an animal's body are created. To put it in a simple sentence, it is meat without the perilous slaughter.
Founded in 2021, Mumbai & Pune based startup Klever Meat is in the process of redefining the way we see and consume seafood.
Both the co founders of Klever Meat, CA Nithin Shetty & Dr Swapnil Kamble met during the Indian Smart Protein Challenge 2021 organized by the Good Food Institute & discovered that inspite of their vast differences in technical backgrounds, both shared a common vision towards solving this grave problem of developing sustainable ways of producing seafood.
This very synergy led them to win the Indian Smart Protein Challenge 2021 organised by the Good Food Institute (pioneer in alternative protein research across the globe) amongst more than 750 participants across the country.
Currently, we have a research setup in Pune where we are working towards developing our own scaffolds & cell lines right now as we are planning to have our PoC of Klever Prawns & Klever Shrimp ready by the second half of 2023.
