Daan Luining

Co-Founder & CTO, Meatable, Leiden

Daan Luining has been working as a molecular biologist from at the start of the cultivated meat movement. He was part of the team that made the first cultivated meat hamburger in the world, and has been working on his dream to make cultivated meat a reality ever since. New Harvest, THE non-profit for cellular agriculture,  was Daan’s next destination, for which he helped develop their fellowship program that now supports over a dozen researches around the world. When back in Europe, Daan developed a unique plan to make cultivated meat available for everyone and founded Meatable. Meatable is pioneering a way of producing real meat without harming anyone or anything. It isn’t like meat, it is meat. Efficient. Sustainable. Cruelty-free. And most importantly of all, delicious. The new natural.
