About
Kinish Inc. uses plant molecular farming on dwarf rice plants, standing at just 20cm tall, to generate milk proteins directly from rice. The plants are cultivated in large quantities in plant factories, which the company says lets it deliver dairy alternatives without relying on cows or other animal sources. Kinish is developing a frozen dessert that combines milk proteins with sweetness derived from rice starch, and says its milk proteins can be used to create a melty alternative cheese. The company says its products replicate a taste on par with conventional dairy products.
Summary
It has raised $3.1M in total across 1 round, most recently a $3.1M Series A round in Oct 2026.
