"What if we really took a systems approach to everything we do?" – Thomas Bjelkeman-Pettersson. Discover how integrated thinking can lead to massive global impact across multiple domains 💫 In the latest episode of Impact Stories, Thomas shares his journey from co-founding the Akvo Foundation, which developed open-source tools to map drinking water sources for over 100 million people in Africa and Asia, to his current venture, Johannas Stadsodlingar AB 🌎 At Johannas, they're pioneering circular, sustainable food production systems in urban settings. By integrating fish farming and plant cultivation in closed water loops and utilizing advanced data analytics, they embody a true systems thinking approach. This holistic method aims to revolutionize food production with minimal environmental impact. With global attention increasingly focused on sustainable food systems as a pathway to address climate change and food security, Thomas's work is more relevant than ever. There is an urgent need for innovative, scalable solutions that transform how we produce and consume food 🌱 At Katapult Future Fest, and Katapult in general, we believe in the power of holistic approaches to create meaningful change. This episode highlights how embracing systems thinking can advance sustainability. We invite you to tune in and reflect on how you can adopt this mindset 💭 🎧 Listen to the episode here: https://lnkd.in/dKjSRCMz Produced by New Nordic Way and Majakka Creative Social.

🎤 “If we are to create a large-scale impact in the food industry, we need to impact the core operations of the farmers. In fact, our task is to help the whole food value chain create a real sustainability impact by making it part of their core operations.” Improvin’s CEO Niklas Wallsargård took the stage at Slush to showcase how we leverage AI to help agri-food companies gain actionable insights into farm-level practices that impact their sustainability – all while requiring minimal effort from the farmers. 🌱 Niklas shared our collaboration with Hankkija Oy as an example of how this information empowers agri-food businesses across Europe to drive emissions reductions and support biodiversity, field by field. A big thank you to Tarmo Kajander and Lumi Orvokki Parviainen at Hankkija for allowing the audience to peek into the Puntari platform, and to Veera Kapitonenko, Maryama Moalim and the team at Slush for inviting us and delivering a well-organized event. We can’t wait to return next year. 🌟

Here’s to 2024: A Year of Growth, Gratitude, and Grit As we close the book on 2024, we can’t help but reflect on the incredible journey this year has been. From launching our jerky line and acquiring our processing plant, StarHarvest, to expanding into over 10 retailers—including Sprouts and Erewhon—and attending more than 150 farmers markets and events, this has truly been a year of transformation. We’ve grown our team across every part of the business—from the fields to the facility, to media and marketing—and seen the fruits of that labor recognized in outlets like Forbes, FOX Live Now, and Organic Insider. This momentum has positioned us as not just leaders, but advisors to others navigating the complexities of regenerative farming and retail. But none of this happens without you. To our community, customers, and followers—your support, encouragement, and belief in our mission to create a healthier world through regenerative farming has been our driving force. It’s because of you that we continue to push boundaries, embrace challenges, and dream big. Here’s to the journey ahead—more growth, more innovation, and more ways to make a positive impact together. We can’t wait to see what 2025 will bring!

Innovations in food systems are key to a) long run food security, b) reducing the environmental footprint of food systems, and c) improving resilience and economics at the farm level. And in case innovations are to be tested and scaled rapidly, a collaborative approach is necessary. These two reports provide a solid framework for collective action on mainstreaming food innovation. Thanks to the many partners that have contributed to this.
