About MicroHarvest GmbH
editMicroHarvest GmbH is an innovative biotechnology company that has developed the world's fastest protein production technology. Given the projected 50% increase in global protein demand by 2050, our groundbreaking protein technology offers a timely and necessary solution. Our goal is to drastically reduce the CO₂ footprint of today's food system, which accounts for 26% of global emissions, by providing accessible and sustainable nutrition for a healthier planet.
Key Products and Services
editMicroHarvest produces high-quality protein ingredients from natural microorganisms. These proteins are sustainable, nutrient-rich, and free from allergens. Our production process utilizes the natural efficiency of microorganisms, which are also found in products like yogurt and cheese, to produce proteins within just 24 hours. The result is a stable, high-protein product with over 60% raw protein and an excellent amino acid profile, complemented by micronutrients such as vitamin B2 and iron.
Mission and Values
editOur mission is to revolutionize the way proteins are produced while significantly reducing environmental impact. We are committed to making the world a better place through sustainable and scalable solutions. Our values include collaboration, speed, commitment, and diversity. We believe in the power of nature and the efficiency of microorganisms to deliver better protein solutions.
Sustainability Goals and Initiatives
editMicroHarvest is dedicated to a sustainable future by reducing CO₂ emissions by 95% compared to traditional animal protein sources. Our production processes are not only efficient but also environmentally friendly and transformative. We plan to further expand our production to serve the mass market, thereby making an even greater contribution to reducing global emissions.
Vision for the Future
editWith the support of investors like Astanor Ventures and Happiness Capital, we recently completed a funding round of 8.5 million euros to bring our protein production technology to market readiness. Our vision is to accelerate food production while minimizing environmental impact. We are hungry for a better future and invite dedicated talents to join our team in Hamburg and Lisbon.
MicroHarvest is not only faster but also strives to make the planet healthier and improve our food system. Our proteins have a smaller ecological footprint, offer better nutritional values, and are produced more quickly. Together, we are hungry for a better future.
