Coming back to this as I just asked Bruce Friedrich (Director of GFI) a question about this in a presentation he was giving:
He said that GFI doesn’t agree with this report and thinks it is less credible than the techno-economic analysis supported by GFI because:
This report didn’t work with any companies under NDA whereas GFI’s analysis had 11 (I believe)
This report also didn’t work with any national scientific agencies where GFI worked with that of Singapore.
Generally he (and the scientists at GFI) seem much more optimistic that cultivated meat can reach price parity with the cheapest animal products and he said if they didn’t think they would, they would focus less on cultivated meat. So that’s a slightly more positive update in the cultivated direction for me and thought it might be interesting for people who are also concerned about this.
