Gelatex Technologies

Gelatex is a materials technology startup that provides edible plant-based nanofibrous 3D scaffolds for cultured meat. Our core IP relies on a unique nanofiber production technology that can be used besides cultured meat also for various other applications such as wound care, tissue engineering, energy storage or bio-based filtration materials.
We enable affordable mass-scale production of structured cultured meat. Gelatex scaffolds have a unique morphology very similar to the extracellular matrix found naturally in tissues and promote cell adhesion and differentiation into myotubes. Gelatex proprietary high-throughput nanofiber production technology enables the reduction of scaffold prices by over 90%.  
We are already working with 13 cultured meat companies, half of them as paying customers. Currently, we are raising a seed round of 1,2 million €, have a local co-lead investor and over half the round committed and are looking for an investor with experience in cultured meat or biotech to join.
