Sydney Altea Meetup: Tour of Vow Foods + Inventia Life Science
Join Altea members and friends interested in alternative investing, biotech, and the future of food and health for an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of two fascinating Sydney-based startups: Vow Foods, and Inventia Life Science.
Vow is one of the most exciting startups in the world right now. The trailblazing Sydney startup is at the forefront of cellular agriculture, creating cultured meat by growing animal cells — no farming, no slaughter.
They’ve already been selling their signature cultured quail in Singapore for over a year, and just recently became the first company approved to sell cultured meat in Australia.
This is a red-hot company featured in Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, and more. CEO George Peppou will lead a tour of Vow’s impressive, enormous facility in Alexandria. You will be able to taste their delicacies firsthand.
Vow is backed by top-tier investors, and they’re raising a new round of funding.
And yes, we are working on way to give Altea members the opportunity to invest in their round.
Inventia Life Science is a rapidly-growing biotech firm using 3D bioprinting to produce human tissue for drug testing, disease modeling, and eventually regenerative medicine.
Their proprietary platform allows scientists to print complex, high-resolution cell structures in minutes. It’s a bold leap toward personalized medicine, and you’ll get to experience it firsthand.
Inventia has some big backers as well, including In-Q-Tel (the CIA’s semi-secretive VC fund) who believe this groundbreaking technology could one day replace organ transplants with printed human tissue.
It’s deep tech, it’s highly scalable, and it’s already making waves across the global biomedical field.
After the tours, we’ll grab drinks + bites at the (stunning) Grounds of Alexandria and continue the conversation.
There are a very limited number of spaces available for these tours - 10 ppl max. This will fill quickly. RSVP now.
