With great pleasure StartLife, one of the co-founders of F&A Next, invites you to the graduation of nine ambitious Food- & AgTech startups of the StartLife Accelerate Spring 2020 Cohort, which takes place online on Wednesday, June 24th 2020 from 15.30 to 18.00 (Central European Summer Time). For the first time StartLife opens the doors to their graduation day to the global F&A community.
About the startups
The agrifood industry is actively searching for sustainable food alternatives, like plant-based dairy, land-based salmon and, oh yes, bugs! The industry is also concerned with a more sustainable use of resources, striving to minimize water usage and crop spoilage and optimizing the circularity of materials. How can corporates ensure trust, quality and fair ownership in their agrifood supply chains? And how can we keep our waters safe from blue algae? Nine early-stage startups supported by StartLife in the spring 2020 acceleration program tackle these global challenges.
For a list of the nine start-ups we suggest reading “9 New Agrifood Startups Prepare To Tackle Global Challenges“.
Innovative Graduation Day
The graduation will be a virtual event with innovative elements that allow you to connect and interact with the graduating startups and other participants before, during and after the event. We take great pleasure in introducing a Virtual Walk In and Virtual Meeting Lounge where you can live chat with participants. You can also join Startup Round Tables where you can talk (video/chat) with the startups in a small group.
