TEA Landscape: Where Do They Disagree? (~40 min): Walking through the optimistic-to-pessimistic spectrum (Pasitka → CE Delft → Humbird). Which assumptions drive the large cost gap? What's changed since 2022?
Crux 1: Media Costs & Growth Factors (~45 min): The biggest variable cost. GFI's amino acid data vs Humbird's assumptions. Will hydrolysates replace purified growth factors? Realistic media costs per kg by 2036.
Crux 2: Bioreactors, Scale-Up & Cell Density (~40 min): Pharma-grade vs food-grade vs custom-built. Achievable cell densities at scale. Batch vs continuous perfusion. The gap between TEA projections and commercial reality.
CM_01 Beliefs & Synthesis (~40 min): Given the discussion, what will CM cost per kg in 2036? Structured beliefs elicitation. Where do we agree/disagree? What research would have highest value of information?
Additional / optional segments:
Business, Government & Cost of Capital: Regulatory environment, philanthropic funding landscape, and how financing costs affect the cost trajectory.
How Is Cultured Meat Produced?: A cost-focused background overview for participants less familiar with the production process. See also our
learning resources.
TEA Modeling & Forecasting (Post-Workshop): Hands-on session — constructing TEAs, uncertainty modeling, and forecasting. Extended (2–5 hours, may be scheduled separately).
