Special Episode: Steen Ooi & Andrew Sayles - Livestock Labs

In this episode of Protein Production Technology International, Steen Ooi and Andrew Sayles of Livestock Labs discuss how their company is developing engineered, production-ready cell lines to accelerate cultivated meat commercialization. They explain how these genetically stable, high-performance cells can cut R&D time by up to two years and reduce development costs by 90–95%. The duo emphasizes the importance of traits like minimal media requirements and rapid proliferation, and they argue that genetic engineering is essential to meet industry-scale demands. They envision a future where cultivated meat companies rely on specialized suppliers instead of building everything in-house, enabling faster innovation, lower barriers to entry, and more reliable production platforms.
