UPSIDE Foods (formerly known as Memphis Meats) develops meat produced directly from animal cells without the need to raise and slaughter actual animals. This approach requires significantly less water, land, and energy than conventional meat production, enabling consumers to enjoy meat that is clean, humane, and free of harmful chemicals. Co-founded and led by Dr. Uma Valeti since 2015, UPSIDE Foods is headquartered in Berkeley, California.
