The growth of cells of a living being is key for an increasing range of applications, including in-vitro drug testing and cellular agriculture. In order to closely mimic the natural environment of such cells in-vitro, highly porous structures with tuneable mechanical and permeability properties are required. Sallea is developing such scaffolds with highly controlled pore size, shape and overall porosity from a broad range of relevant materials.

PFAS pollution is one of the most serious threats to our health and environment. And the most challenging ones to treat — short and ultra-short chains — are being missed by current technologies. As regulations evolve, industries are expected to stay compliant with technologies that aren’t up to the challenge.
Oxyle is solving that.
We engineer PFAS treatment processes that permanently eliminate PFAS, including the toughest short- and ultra-short chains. Because no two streams are the same, our solutions aren’t either. We combine proprietary innovations with best-in-class technologies to design the most effective process for your wastewater. So you can stay ahead of evolving regulations and lead the way to PFAS-free water.
Founded in 2020, we’re on a mission to protect our waters from PFAS. Down to the last drop.

Dairy causes 4% of global greenhouse gas emission.
Plant-based alternatives, although gaining traction, dont appeal to many consumers, as they lack a creaminess for which the fat component is key.
At Cultivated we want to fix this.
We are developing an emulsion from yeast, which offers the creaminess needed for plant-based dairy, while enabling clean labels.
