Second day of #NextBite24 starting with several EIT FAN Helsinki startups stepping on stage. Following a discussion on how startups, investors and corporates view AI and robotics in food production and distribution, the case of New Wave Biotech is right on point! New Wave Biotech is a UK-based SaaS startup developing a simulation software for companies operating in synthetic biology. Their AI-powered solution is one that will surely have an impact on what happens behind the curtains of future food production.

In the last 2 days at Future Food-Tech, Mariana Gentilhomem and I met people who inspired me to start New Wave Biotech, investors who’ve supported us on our journey and many fellow entrepreneurs on the same mission to make our food system more sustainable and secure. It was great to see so many old friends from EIT Food and Big Idea Ventures accelerators, but also meet many new people from across the #FoodTech ecosystem. It’s clear that the market landscape has shifted massively since we started two years ago, with emphasis on commercialisation, a drive towards alternative proteins as an answer to supply chain shocks and nutrition, and a lot of interest in sustainability measurement as EUDR kicks-in in 2025. We are a remote first company, and most of our meetings are conducted online now, but there is something quite precious about connecting in person… not to mention that you can’t taste things through the screen! From Heura Foods’s new vegan cheeses, to Neggst’s vegan eggs and Planet A Ventures’s ChoViva chocolate — it's exciting to taste the amazing progress being made in this industry! We're excited to play a role in advancing the future of food, and we can’t wait to see what’s next! #FutureFoodTech #AlternativeProteins #SustainableFood #Innovation #Biotechnology

Beautiful countryside, inspiring speakers and insightful conversations - What a way to celebrate our 2 year anniversary! 🎉 Last week, our team spent a fantastic week in the beautiful Yorkshire 🌄, where we focused on defining our strategic direction and aligning our goals for the upcoming months.💪 It was a great opportunity to reflect on our journey, on how fast our team has scaled up! 🚀 With 2 new team members joining us in the last few weeks, and now Theo Gardner and Ahmad Mahmoud Kobeiter Abiad joining this week, this was the first time we got to see everyone together in person. 🙌 Especially as a remote team, it is incredibly valuable to come together in person and having the space to step away from our usual routines, connect on a deeper level, and align on our goals at this exciting turning point for our business. 💡 We also enjoyed some quality time together cooking meals 🍳 and exploring the charming streets of Hebden Bridge 📸, making it a week full of great moments and fun stories to share! Working together like this really captures what we’re all about: bringing smart people across bioprocessing, sustainability, AI, software and business together, to enable scalable biomanufacturing for sustainable change. We can't drive change alone, which is why we invited some friends across the industrial biotech space to share their perspectives. Thank you Leon Ge D. from tocco, Corjan van den Berg from revyve, and Dr. Sharvari Raut from NETZSCH Group for sharing your valuable industry insights, perspectives and vision for where this industry can go. We're excited to see how much we've achieved together, and even more excited to see what is to come with our new expanded team. Here’s to many more adventures and achievements ahead! 🥂🍾  Zoe Yu Tung Law Oli Hall Victoria Outram Mariana Gentilhomem Przemyslaw Baj Alice Mazzer Rafael Boni Ahmad Mahmoud Kobeiter Abiad Theo Gardner #TeamNewWave #AnniversaryCelebration #CompanyCulture #SustainableInnovation #PeakDistrict
