About

At Amatera, we aim to leverage on the latest techniques in biotechnology, to create the coffee varieties of tomorrow. While we drink a trillion cups of coffee every year, number expected to triple by 2050, rising temperatures will reduce, in the meantime, the area suitable for growing coffee by up to 50%. It is urgent to make coffee varieties more sustainable and climate resistant to fill that massive demand.
