Participate in the “cULnet Consortium”, an open innovation platform form for cellular agriculture

Ebara Corporation (hereafter: Ebara) has participated in the “cULnet Consortium”, an open innovation platform for cell agriculture established by Integrity Culture Co., Ltd.

Ebara aims to support a world where there are no problems with water or food, and contribute to the realization of a sustainable society with the important issues set forth in the long-term vision “E-Vision 2030.” To that end, we will cooperate with external partners to respond to food issues such as protein crises anticipated around the world in the future through the development of new technologies and the creation of new businesses by transferring our existing technologies to new fields.

By 2050, the world's population will reach 10 billion people, and amid concerns about depletion of energy, feed, land, water, food, etc., commercialization of alternative proteins such as plant-derived or insect food, and development of cultured meat using cell culture are attracting attention. In order to solve issues such as cost aspects, safety aspects, and supply aspects of dissemination, this consortium was established to jointly solve culture media, equipment, etc. through open innovation and build a supply system including supply chains in the future.

Ebara is participating in this consortium with our fluid technology, mainly pumps, and aims to contribute to the CULnet system for our products. Furthermore, through technology verification tests at this consortium, we will work to create new businesses by fusing new knowledge with the technology we have cultivated so far.
