Delivering Cultivated Beef to the World - Aleph Farms

In this special 50th episode of Future of Foods Interviews, host Alex Crisp meets Didier Toubia, co-founder and CEO of Aleph Farms, to discuss their latest successes and some challenges of bringing cultivated beef to the world - one country at a time and all at once.

in 2024 Aleph Farms secured the world's first regulatory approval for cultivated beef steaks - in Israel, paving the way for their flagship product, Aleph Cuts. 2025 is likely to see further permission given, but the country is your guess - will it be Switzerland, Singapore, UK or Thailand?

Aleph has its sights set on Southeast Asia with a new production facility in Thailand in partnership with BBGI and Fermbox Bio. As part of this expansion, they’ve submitted an application for regulatory approval in Thailand, aiming for a market debut by 2026. Didier reflects on the company's journey, highlighting the need for transparent communication, realistic timelines, and sustainable production practices as cultivated meat edges closer to commercialization.

Didier shares insights into navigating complex regulatory landscapes, costs involved, getting money in a complex financial era, and balancing innovation with market readiness.
