Key Trends in the Market

Cultured meat, also known as cultivated meat or lab-grown or clean meat, refers to animal meat grown in labs by culturing animal cells in vitro. This form of cellular agriculture enables the production of genuine animal meat entirely outside of an animal's body with the help of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

• One of the key cultured meat market trends is the advances in the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM). These advancements allow the production of animal meat (including seafood and organ meats) in a lab, reducing the need for the rearing of animals for food. Cultured meat has similar sensory qualities and nutritional profiles as that of conventional meat and does not require animals to be slaughtered, creating a more sustainable and humane lab-grown meat industry.

• The demand for meat substitutes is increasing as a result of rapid innovations in the alternative proteins space and a shift toward sustainable food systems. Alternative proteins, including lab-grown meat, are likely to play a crucial role in overcoming meat shortages and meet the rising food demands of the global population while minimizing environmental impact and promoting animal welfare.

• The leading companies are focused on advancing their research and development efforts to produce cultured meat on a large scale, aiming to commercialize cultured meat products by obtaining regulatory approvals. This is likely to enhance the cultured meat market demand in the coming years.
