SCiFi Foods

What a wild ride. And I’d do it again!

You may have already heard that last week, we shut down SCiFi operations and handed off to an advisory firm to run a sale process of our IP and assets. We did not make this decision lightly, but it was the best option as we reached the end of our runway. Unfortunately, in this funding environment, we could not raise the capital that we needed to commercialize the SCiFi burger, and SCiFi Foods ran out of time. Read more:

We’re proud to announce a monumental milestone for SCiFi Foods: the completion of our first 500L bioreactor run of cultivated beef! This milestone has been four years in the making, and now we’re one step closer to bringing the SCiFi burger to a restaurant near you. Learn more about this exciting development and what it means for the future of meat.

As the year comes to a close, I find myself reflecting on the incredible journey we've embarked on here at Crew Universal. This year was a testament to the spirit of innovation, collaboration, and resilience. The completion of the SCiFi Foods Pilot Plant stands out as a milestone not just for us but for the future of sustainable food technology. I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our amazing clients, team, partners, and everyone involved in bringing the SCiFi Foods Pilot Plant to life. Your dedication and expertise have truly turned our bold vision into a reality. As we look towards the New Year, let's celebrate our achievements and the adventures that await. Happy Holidays to all, and here's to breaking new ground in 2024! #CrewUniversal #Innovation #Sustainability #EndOfYearReflection #NewBeginnings #HappyHolidays Kasia Gora Joshua March Adam Beier, MBA Sean McKillop SCiFi Foods Erik Kolstoe Shirley Yee Adithya Ganapathi Subramanian Andrew Meritt Joshua Desmuke, PE Barbara Lambing DPR Construction Stan Lew AIA, LEED AP, NCARB Eunice Furuta RMW architecture & interiors Steve Conn Therma Jeff Messana Elcor Electric, Inc.
