    🌍 Empowering Innovation and Sustainability with Digitalization! 🌍 At Siemens, we are thrilled to support Nasekomo, an agro-biotech startup revolutionizing the human food chain. By producing animal feed from organic waste using insects, Nasekomo is reducing food waste and greenhouse gas emissions while developing a data-driven franchise business model. Their global network of 200 franchises breeds Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae to produce proteins, oils, and organic fertilizer. Our collaboration with Nasekomo involves providing comprehensive support in digitalization strategy and project implementation. Siemens experts have delivered creative digitization consulting services to develop a future-ready digital platform capable of supporting 200 global manufacturing sites. This includes integrated engineering platforms, AI-driven analytics, digital twin processes, and more. Through a thorough analysis of existing production and future requirements, we defined, evaluated, and proposed a comprehensive solution and implementation timeline. Our innovative approach enables Nasekomo to continue developing revolutionary bio-genetic production ideas, which are also patented. The consultancy results are groundbreaking on a global scale, incorporating integrated solutions for digitalization development. These include IT/OT network and cybersecurity, connectivity of all production processes, cloud services, unified engineering environments, digital twin simulations, remote management, and more. This holistic digital strategy empowers Nasekomo’s data-supported franchise business model, capturing and processing all process variables across global locations with AI. Together, we are paving the way for Nasekomo to expand its production of protein, oil, and biofertilizer plants. With our joint digital solutions, Nasekomo will be the first to offer a franchise model for protein production, ensuring sustainability and a strong return on investment.

    ✨ What an honor and delight was to welcome delegates from the 61st Session of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) to Nasekomo's Center of Excellece in Sofia! The visit was organized in collaboration with the Ministry of Environment and Water of Bulgaria for which we are very thankful as it was a key moment to showcase the transformative potential of the insect industry in addressing global sustainability challenges. 🌍 🌎 🌏 🙋♂️ We had the chance to share with high level delegates from IPCC our belief that the true potential for a sustainable future lies in the harmonious integration of cutting-edge technologies and the natural capabilities of insects, such as the Hermetia Illucens (#BSF). These remarkable insects efficiently convert organic by-products into valuable protein, highlighting their vital role in a circular economy and the decarbonization of agriculture. 🌱 Our R&D Director Marco Tulio Tejeda, together with our Head of Sustainability and Innovation Projects Maria Alexandrova proudly revealed how the combination of advanced technological processes and the inherent ecological efficiency of insects can lead to groundbreaking solutions while Kamen Vasilev demonstrated how Nasekomo leverages this synergy to reduce the environmental footprint of agriculture and diversify protein sources. ⚙ 🐛 🙏 We extend our heartfelt thanks to all IPCC delegates who demonstrated such an interest to visit the leading innovator in sclaing the insect industry in Europe and abroad. Our message to climate leaders? With collaboration and innovation we can drive meaningful change and build a more sustainable world. 🤝 #Sustainability #InsectTechnology #Collaboration #Innovation #CircularEconomy #ClimateAction #NasekomoTeam Photos below were taken by Nikolay Doychinov
