UK government invests GBP 12 million in Cellular Agriculture Manufacturing Hub

Industry news

  • The UK government has pledged GBP 12 million (~USD 14.9 million) toward the Cellular Agriculture Manufacturing Hub (CARMA) initiative led by the University of Bath. The project aims to help British companies and scientists produce cultivated meat at scale, transforming meat production into a sustainable model that complements traditional food production. 

  • CARMA has been funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council and is part of the GBP 120 million (~USD 149.1 million) earmarked for R&D in the Government Food Strategy.

  • The CARMA project aims to create practical and scalable manufacturing technologies, systems, process feedstocks, and skills for cultivating meat and precision fermentation ingredients. The seven-year project will involve experts from multiple UK universities and cultivated meat companies such as Hoxton Farms and Ivy Farm.

  • CARMA's participants include the Universities of Birmingham and Aberystwyth, University College London, the Royal Agricultural University, and UK-based cultivated meat companies.

  • Analyst QuickTake : The UK, similar to Europe, is starting to focus on developing cell-cultured meat technologies and scaling up cultivated meat production. In 2021, the  European Commission pledged EUR 100 billion (~USD 110.5 million) for the green transition, including investment in plant-based and alternative proteins. Singapore , however, leads the charge in regulatory approvals for cell-based products, while the US is overcoming regulatory hurdles.
