from side dish to centre-of-plate protein
+ mushroom+ is a deep-tech platform that boosts the protein content and performance of mushrooms
+ by enhancing protein yield and nutritional density, we can turn existing mushroom farms into climate-positive protein hubs, without rebuilding the entire food system from scratch
we upgrade mushrooms into climate-smart protein

about us
+ mushroom+ is a UK-based deep-tech venture reimagining mushrooms as a scalable, net-positive protein source.
+ our mission is simple: help the world meet rising protein demand without blowing past planetary boundaries.
our work
+ we help mushroom growers and producers unlock higher-value, protein-rich products using the facilities and skills they already have.
+ by doing so, we supply high-protein mushrooms and co-develop products that meet the needs of flexitarian consumers, retailers and food services with credible, audited climate impact.
our team
+ a shared passion for fungi, science and nutrition unites our team. With over 20 years of microbiology experience, we are led by two highly skilled scientists with drive and relentless determination.
+ we value an evidence-first approach to the science and a partner-led approach to the business. The goal is a net-positive outcome for the climate, communities we work with and the economics that support our idea.
