Decisionmakers from Cultivated Meat Industry Gather for Annual Meat Evolution Leaders Summit

GBX EVENTS announces the second Annual Meat Evolution Leaders Summit (MEVO). The Summit will take place on February 7th and 8th, 2024 at the Hyatt Regency Barcelona Tower and is co-hosted with the Annual Cell & Gene Therapy Innovation Summit (CGTI) and Annual Bio Innovation Leaders Summit (BILS).

MEVO is a cultured meat industry summit that exclusively brings together up to 250 decisionmakers from small to prominent manufacturers, commercial producers, and investors – exclusively in person. These industry leaders are cutting-edge technology providers, brands, and future food pioneers who want to expand their expertise and presence in a lucrative growth market.

The rapidly growing cultivated meat industry is still in its infancy, but promises to be a beacon of hope for our future environment. The MEVO conference is doing its part to make this a reality for the second time by bringing the industry’s leading CXOs back together to learn, develop and grow together instead of remaining in silos.

2024 speakers include:

Bruce Friedrich, Founder and President of The Good Food Institute
Neta Lavon, CTO at Aleph Farms
Daan Luining, Founder and CTO of Meatable
George Peppou, Founder and CEO of Vow
Benjamina Bollag, CEO of Uncommon
Kai Yi Carrie Chan, CEO of Avant
