Our CEO Ingrid Dynna will be speaking at EIT Next Bite in Rome next week. This is a fantastic opportunity to connect with fellow innovators and thought leaders in the food sector. EIT Food, Europe’s leading food innovation initiative, supports startups and entrepreneurs in creating a more sustainable, healthy, and resilient food system. Their commitment to fostering innovation aligns perfectly with our mission to transform food industry side streams into high-value ingredients, using the power of fungi. We are proud to have them as supporters and investors in NoMy. We look forward to be engaging in discussions and exploring new ideas that will shape the future of food. Hope to see you in Rome! 🇮🇹✨ #NextBite24 #EITFood #AgriFoodTech #Innovation #FutureOfFood #Investment #Networking #RegenerativeFoodSystems #Circularity #Fungi #Fungal #Fermentation

What happens when a mushroom researcher and a Google strategist start a company? Fantastic to be profiled in the weekend's Dagens Næringsliv D2 magazine on our journey to build resilient value chains for sustainable proteins in Norway and beyond. A little curiosity, and a lot of fermentation. Thanks to Lise Aanes and David Torch for the nice prose and pics. Good weekend! 🍄 #fermentationnationnorway #thefutureisfungal https://lnkd.in/der4ZPGv

NoMy receives investment from Katapult Ocean!🚀 We are really excited to announce Katapult Ocean's investment into NoMy as part of their 2024 Accelerator cohort, taking place this fall. Having gone through a rigorous diligence process NoMy represents the top 1% of over 2000 candidates who were assessed for their accelerator program this year. In total, the recruitment round screened start-ups from 6 continents and over 60 countries, with the selected 12 companies representing 7 different countries and spanning 3 continents. The accelerator program is specifically designed for high impact Ocean-tech companies. This award-winning program has received international praise for being the most comprehensive impact accelerator program in the world. Over the next 3 months, NoMy will strengthen our skills in impact, business strategy & management, and financing strategy through a combination of video modules and hands-on workshops. NoMy will also benefit from entering a network of international mentors, industry players and investors. Ross Brooks, General Partner at Katapult Ocean says, “There is a projected USD 8.5tn in public company value at risk from exposure to ocean environmental degradation over the next 15 years, this cohort of companies represents a snapshot of the solutions urgently required to mitigate value loss and capitalize on the immense sustainable blue economy opportunity. We are delighted to have NoMy on board and we look forward to the journey ahead through the accelerator program and beyond.” #sustainability #oceans #blueeconomy #fermentation #impact #altprotein #alternativeproteins #aquaculture
