About

Boston-based foodtech company Motif FoodWorks conducted a round of layoffs in July 2022 as part of a restructuring, citing the need to pivot focus toward key priorities with maximum return on investment amid challenging economic conditions. While the exact number of employees affected was not disclosed, the company indicated it would tighten its workforce in certain areas while continuing to invest in high-demand food-tech ingredients and finished products. Motif, which had raised $345 million since its 2019 spin-off from Ginkgo BioWorks, specializes in developing plant-based alternatives for meat and dairy, leveraging technologies like HEMAMI for flavor and APPETEX for texture. The layoffs reflect a strategic shift to streamline operations and concentrate resources on core innovations in the competitive alternative protein industry.
