Sydney-based startup Vow has secured US$6 million ($7.7 million) in new funding as it continues to grow its suite of cell-based, cultured meat products at a time when interest in the alternative meat sector is blooming.
The oversubscribed seed funding round was led by Square Peg Capital and included participation from existing investors Blackbird Ventures and Mike and Annie Cannon-Brookes’ investment office Grok Ventures.
The funding round also included new investors Tenacious Ventures, and Square Peg principal James Tynan will join the Vow board of directors.
