Finnish company Solar Foods has successfully concluded its Series B funding round, raising €8 million from retail investors in Finland.
Solar Foods has developed a proprietary microbe that feeds on carbon dioxide (CO²) and hydrogen to grow a high-protein food ingredient called Solein.
Detaching food from agriculture, Solein can be grown anywhere, taking just 0.1 percent of the land and 1 percent of the water that a similar amount of beef would.
