Startup Your Taste

Always wondered what it is like to be an entrepreneur in a branch with endless possibilities and innovation? Be part of the interactive webinar collaboration between Starthub Wageningen and the study associations Mercurius and Nicolas Appert: ‘Startup Your Taste’ on the 12th of January! During this webinar, four different startups in the food sector will talk about their unique products, technologies and inspiring journey as a food entrepreneur. Afterwards there is room to ask any questions about their journey, possibilities and innovative technologies!

The four start ups that we will welcome are:

-Rival Foods: Produces plant based meat replacers using the shear shell technique developed at Wageningen University. Winner of the Rabobank Sustainable Development price 2020.

-De Krekerij: Works on a future-proof food system, where good food and health for everyone come together. They are committed to putting the naturally protein rich crickets and grasshoppers on the menu in a tasty way, and to get them on your plate!

-Zzinga: Bee mortality and loss of biodiversity are huge problems around the world. Zzinga creates delicious, refreshing honey cider with sustainably sourced honey from Europe. With every Zzinga, you support local bee projects here in the Netherlands. Maybe you have tried some during the 100 year WUR gala!

-MaGie Creations: The leftover product of beer brewing, Brewer's Spent Grains, are nowadays used as feed. Magie creates new higher value food products from beer brewing waste on a large scale. They had a pilot in the LIDL already with their "Brewbar".
