StartLife strongly believes that startups hold the key to the big changes needed in our food system. In order for promising startups to succeed, we help them find their way to success and build an impactful company.
Disruptive innovation in itself is not enough; it also needs to be implemented and transformed into tangible applications. At StartLife we strongly believe that entrepreneurs are needed for their drive, investors for their belief and corporates for their mass impact. Hence, StartLife builds bridges between these groups to jointly accelerate to a sustainable food system. We do this is on a individual basis, but also through our internationally renowned F&A Next summit.
