Standing Ovation

Standing Ovation develops food technology solutions using precision fermentation to produce animal-free dairy proteins for food manufacturing. The company creates casein proteins through engineered microorganisms, enabling the production of cheese and other dairy products without relying on traditional animal farming.Its core product, AdvancedCasein, is designed to replicate the functional, nutritional, and taste properties of conventional milk proteins while reducing dependence on livestock-based supply chains. The production process involves cultivating microorganisms, feeding them plant-based inputs, and extracting proteins that can be incorporated into standard dairy processing methods. Standing Ovation applies these proteins in the development of cheese alternatives that follow traditional cheesemaking techniques, allowing compatibility with existing manufacturing systems. The resulting products are lactose-free and aim to maintain similar texture and performance characteristics as conventional dairy ingredients in food applications. | $28.6M / Series B / Mar 31, 2026 | |
