As an ambassador of the BioeconomyVentures project, Foodvalley is organising two Expand & Explore workshops. These are workshops where several innovators (start-ups and scale-ups) from the Foodvalley ecosystem have the opportunity to pitch their ideas to investors. The first edition took place in December 2022. The second Expand and Explore Workshop will take place on 10 May 2023 during the World Bio Markets in The Hague. Participants of the workshop will also receive free access to the World Bio Markets event!
The aim of the Explore and Expand Workshops is to make new connections, but also to give innovators the opportunity to get feedback on their pitch, innovation and business case, and to learn from other pitchers. We invite innovators (TRL ≥ 4) from the Foodvalley ecosystem to participate in this event. In particular, innovators working on circular agrifood topics such as upcycling/valorisation of side streams, insect protein production or regenerative agriculture are welcome to present their solutions.
Innovators, investors, and experts interested in these topics are also welcome to attend.
Bioeconomy innovators, investors and relevant experts interested in participating can pre-register using the form below. Prior to the event, Foodvalley will make a selection of pitchers, investors and experts due to the limited capacity of the venue. More details about the event and the programme will follow soon.
BioeconomyVentures has received funding from the Bio Based Industries Joint Undertaking under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme under Grant Agreement No 101023260.
