Technologies for scaling cultured meat production

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We are building hardware and processes that make cultured meat production scalable and cost-effective. Our technology automates key steps in cell cultivation to enable small producers to significantly ramp up clean meat output.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live and work in Monterrey, N.L., Mexico. After YC, the company would remain based there initially.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Monterrey offers resources we know well and strong local networks, so it makes sense to build here. Our long-term plans consider expanding globally, but starting local lets us focus on product development without relocation disruption.
