He advised us on the nitty gritty of cell lines, culture conditions, manufacturing systems for their large-scale production, and much more. His knowledge also extends beyond the cultivated meat industry and he helped with market research in other industries that use animal cells. If you need a bioprocess development expert, I highly recommend James!"

We all left with a much better understanding of our unique value proposition and the next 12 months of our startup journey. James was extremely clear as he led us through multiple small-group exercises, and as someone who has been in the trenches, it was refreshing to hear his take on some of the standard advice founders often hear. I think any founder would be lucky to have him in their network!"
