ShrimpoFarm - SHR!MP S01E01

08 October 2025

The final months of my Exopharm journey were a time of reflection. While thinking about our stem-cell production process and some of my exploratory work looking into potentially applying our core Exo technologies to the lab-grown meat.. I mean.. cellular agriculture manufacturing process, I was wondering why one would not "simply" grow cell clusters that are naturally programmed to become the meat we'd like to eat in a similar, automated bioreactor-based system - cell clusters, like small marine animals (see the Genesis of SHRMP.bio). On NYE 2023, I decided 2024 was the year, I wanted to see if it could float as a startup, to develop a next-(next?)-generation food manufacturing system.

The goal for the year: Develop ShrimpoFarm from an idea into a development plan and introduce it to the Australian innovation ecosystem, find a team and some money and get building the Future of Seafood Manufacturing.

But how to get started?
