Modern Meat - Vow

Food Meets Climate Podcast with Simon Newstead

Vow co-founders George Peppou and Tim Noakesmith weren’t always planning on starting a company. George had been running a startup accelerator on agriculture whilst Tim was determined to start his own vegan company. What brought the two together? A passion for cultivated meat. Now, from their Sydney-based startup, they’re bringing a new take on food, reimagining meat and its meaning in a way seldom done before. In this week’s episode we chat to the pair about their unique approach, as well as the biggest technical challenges being faced in the journey so far. We also discuss the importance of a cell library, governmental support and their predictions of the effect this has for the future of the industry.
