Cellular Agriculture Society (CAS)

The Cellular Agriculture Society (CAS) is an international 501(c)(3) non-profit organization seeking to support the development and commercialization of cellular agricultural products and technologies. CAS was founded by Kristopher Gaseratos in March, 2017.

CAS was founded by Kristopher Gasteratos in March, 2018 based on the philosophy that animal products ought to be sourced from cells rather than farmed animals. The trademarked slogan for CAS is, "For the people, for then animals, for the world.

The programs at CAS are aimed at promoting public involvement in cellular agriculture. The programs are split into three categories: Initiatives are programs on narrow topics, Divisions are programs on broad topics led by Directors on the Executive Board, and Series are recurring application based programs.

CAS has partnered up with cellular agriculture companies offering them their own CAS accreditation. The CAS accreditation is offered to companies as a pre-certification until they have successfully commercialized a product, after which, a full CAS certification is granted. The CAS certification is for cellular agricultural companies that are poised to benefit people, animals, and the world at large.

CAS partners with cellular agriculture companies along with international institutions and universities.
