Leonardo DiCaprio has added to his environmental business by investing in Wildtype, a firm that produces sushi-grade fish using cell culture. Wild Type, headquartered in San Francisco, released a statement saying that DiCaprio, 47, has entered as just an investment in the firm’s $100 million Series B financing.
The Academy Award-winning performer and conservationist announced his commitment via Twitter on Wednesday. The environmental fishing industry is in jeopardy more now than ever. I’m excited to be a part of @wildtypefoods, the frontrunner in farmed seafood, which will allow us to preserve our seas simultaneously while producing the healthiest fresh fish in the world, “DiCaprio wrote to his approximately 19.5 million visitors.
Robert Downey Jr.’s Footprint Coalition, Bezos Expeditions, Singaporean state private equity firm Temasek, and Cargill, a related food corporation headquartered in Minnesota, participated in the Series B round. DiCaprio continued in a post issued with the Series B funding, “Wild type will undoubtedly alter our food chain with its magnificent fish.”
Wild Type uses farmed Pacific fish approach to produce sushi-grade fish, which is primarily in planters similar to those seen in breweries. Fish genes are transcribed inside a plant-based framework that aids in the formation of their size and structural fibrosis.
Justin Kolbeck and Aryé Elfenbein co-founded the San Francisco firm to create the purest, best-fresh fish on earth. Following receiving FDA clearance from the US Food & Drug Administration, Wildtype expects to introduce its farmed fish at perfectly alright food outlets. This is DiCaprio’s 2nd environmentally beneficial business statement in several hours, following his statement on Tuesday announcing his purchase of Belmont Champagne. From safeguarding wildlife on its property to just using solar technologies, Maison Belmont is committed to eliminating waste. DiCaprio wrote, “I’m delighted to participate as a shareholder in Champagne Belmont.”
Champagne Belmont has remained a family business, with 4th generation Bertrand Lhôpital working as cellar manager and vineyard director. Champagne Belmont, in collaboration with its winegrower partners, has focused on manufacturing 100% organic champagne in the next few years, guaranteeing a perfectly sustainable manufacturing lifetime, “DiCaprio said in a message published by Champagne Belmont on Tuesday.
Champagne Telmont praised the performer’s participation as a support of their strategy. “Leonardo DiCaprio’s choice to become a Belmont stakeholder delivers a significant congratulatory message, which will motivate us as we follow through with our bold ambitions,” said the company. In an announcement, Ludovic du Plessis, president and stakeholder of Champagne Belmont, said, “We embrace the same beliefs and dedication to environmental protection.”
