Rising tides: Avant eyes retail launch of cell-based fish maw and fillet by 2025 - CEO interview Hong Kong’s cultivated meat biotechnology firm Avant is aiming to produce its first cell-based fish maw and fillet products for consumption by late 2022, and wants products to be commonplace in supermarkets by 2025.
It first launched the cell-based fish maw prototype in 2019, and the cell-based fish fillet in 2020, and now hopes to manufacture these in a soon-to-be set up pilot plant in Singapore by late 2022.
Once it receives approval from Singapore’s regulatory body, the Singapore Food Agency (SFA), Avant will initially produce for foodservice first, and target the larger retail sector sometime in 2025.

CV Launchpad is set to run for one year and aims to enable corporates to launch investible new ventures within six months by partnering them with four venture studios pre-approved by EDB New Ventures. Venture studios are corporates that specialize in supporting companies to incubate and build new ideas that can be scaled to new successful businesses.
The government hopes that the creation of new businesses will be a potential growth driver for the economy and create high-value job opportunities. The program is expected to support up to 20 companies through the validation sprint concept (from idea generation to venture launch and scaling in an accelerated time period).
