With a growing global population, limited resources, and environmental degradation foodtech is a catalyst for positive change, with the potential to revolutionize the way we produce, consume, and interact with food.
We believe that by supporting small and medium sized enterprises we can unlock the full potential of foodtech to create a sustainable and resilient food system that nourishes both people and the planet while creating jobs in the region. This is why we founded Foodtech Innovation Network.
Our mission is to accelerate the growth of small and medium sized enterprises within foodtech. We increase innovation power and unite pioneers, to create a healthy, tasty, and sustainable food system.
The network consists of more than 130 members, offering a variety of world class foodtech solutions from transforming agricultural practices to reimagining food production and ensuring food safety. Together we stand in the forefront ready to create the food system of the future.
