A thriving community pioneering the future of food

Nära & Naturlig

Nära & Naturlig has developed a new innovative fish farming technology that reuses all farming water and residual product back into the internal production again. The fish get natural feed in the form of aquatic microbes and through the systems microbial-metabolism food by-products can be reused. In addition, the production cost is significantly decreased, superior fish health is observed and the final product of fish gets a more natural ”wild” taste.

Vision

to become a big player in the global food sector, to be able to create social impact towards a future with sustainable and healthy food production. In addition, Nära & Naturlig will offer an alternative to wild caught fish, which enables recovery of the marine ecosystems, and the system reuses food by-products into a product with higher biological value in the form of nutritious fish compared to biogas. The final goal is to develop a sustainable fish farming method in Sweden, which can be established internationally and above all help developing nations to get access towards safe and nutritious food produced in a sustainable way.

Mycorena

There is a huge gap between market potential and current market value of alternative protein. Manufacturers cannot bridge the gap utilizing available plant-based alternatives, due to poor product quality, limited efficiency & scalability, and an unacceptable climate footprint. We solve the problem of the alternative protein gap by providing food manufacturers with Promyc, a unique fungi-based protein source with massive benefits over ingredients in the status quo.

Our vision is to be the global leader in fungi-based food technologies, and the disruption of alternative protein is just a starting point. Our long-term ambition is to provide a comprehensive industrial solutions, ranging from functional ingredients to nutritional supplements & nutraceuticals, specialty compounds, biomaterials, biomass post-processing, and valorization of byproducts & sidestreams.

FarmUp

FarmUp connect food producers directly with end-customers. Today over 100 producers use our app to sell to consumers, grocery stores and restaurants. Today many producers are completely reliant on wholesalers (who dictate the terms). Using FarmUp we empower and allow them to dictate the terms of their business. For their customers we gather all producers in one place and make it easy and convenient to buy locally produced food.

Our ambition is to make locally produced food more accessible. Whether you eat at home or at a restaurant – there should be sustainable options. We want to lead a food revolution towards a more sustainable food system.

Watersprint

The United Nations is predicting a 40 % shortfall in freshwater resources by 2030, coupled with a rising world population.To contribute in handling this challenge, we at Watersprint provide a cost efficient UV LED purification system reducing up to 99,99 % of virus, bacteria, protozoa, cysts and other pathogens. We use cutting edge technology to change the game of water purification, undertaking continuous research to maximize inactivation of DNA/RNA. We do this by optimizing water flow, light reflection in reactor, geometry of reactor, LED control, flexible emission patterns, and wavelength. Our solution is flexible enough for any application, both as stand alone and as part of other manufacturers applications. The disinfection performance of our solutions is validated through a vast program of microbial tests in our lab and in cooperation with Lund University’s facilities, as well as independent validation by third party labs such as VA Syd, RISE and Synlab in Sweden and IWW in Germany. Trust us as your water experts in helping you find water purification solutions of superior and affordable quality!

Sustainable Food Waste SFW

Today, the food chain doesn’t know how the shelf life of frozen and chilled food is affected by changes in temperature. To be on the safe side in the event of a temperature deviation, the food is thrown away. The innovative SFW app can, with the help of a secured database, deliver clear and up-to-date information on how a product’s shelf life has been affected by a rise in temperature. Which benefits the various players in the food chain through ensure shelf life, reduced food waste and a reduced environmental impact.

In order to meet the need for food from the global population increase, more food must be produced in the next four decades than in the last 9,000 years! At the same time as global hunger is increasing, a third of all food produced is thrown away, a large part of that fraction arises due to temperature deviations. One problem is very often the uncertainty surrounding remaining shelf life. Sustainable Food Waste SFW is a FoodTech startup that wants to contribute to a responsible and sustainable handling of tempered food with a clear vision: No food waste caused by temperature deviations!

Selcis BioPharma

Short Chain Fatty Acids (SCFA) are bacterial metabolites produced from fermentation products of dietary fibers and they are major mediators of differentiation, maturation, and activation of intestinal tissue and exerts potent effects on colonic mucosal functions through inhibition of inflammation.

An intestinal dysbiosis can be caused by antibiotics or poor diets, and can lead to decreased levels of SCFA´s in the gut. By improving the nutritional condition of the colon mucosa it may be possible to prevent or even alleviate some diseases. Of the biological active substances formed, the most important is butyric acid which stimulates mucosal cell proliferation, blood flow and oxygen uptake, resulting in a reduced gut permeability and influx of toxic/inflammatory substances to the circulation and may therefore decrease the risk for endotoxemia (low-grade inflammation) and associated diseases.

Selcis BioPharma is developing a technology where SCFA´s can be delivered to the colon and potentially prevent or restore gut homeostasis.

Innoscentia

In most parts of our world, we are using a highly inefficient system to determine food shelf life. Because of the inability to monitor products, producers are forced to assume worst-case scenarios when setting expiry dates, why about 30% of the shelf life is lost and locked up in the system. As the concern for food quality and food safety is growing around the world, the trend among end consumers is leaning towards more conservative interpretations of expiry dates, which emphasizes the need for a systematic shift in shelf-life determination.

Vision

Our vision is to become the category leader within dynamic shelf life indication technologies, and to help producers, retailers and end consumers to drastically reduce food waste around the world. Our vision is essentially to make it possible for all of us to consume the food we produce, and by doing so, to create a sustainable food system.

TekInn AB

The company’s core technology is antibacterial surfaces. These are created via a metal complex which via the company’s polymer technology can be bonded to different types of surfaces.

DiaPure

DiaPure filter material is designed for Phosphorus traps in sewage systems. DiaPure is based on a naturally porous material covered in a coating with phosphorus binding properties. The material does not break down, does not clogge and works regardless of the pH level. This results in highly reactive and long lasting material.

Our goal is that as many people as possible should purify their waste water from phosphorus regardless of whether you live in areas with a high protection area or not, because it protects nature and forms a natural cycle; what previously was waste, can be of use again.
