Featured Startup ️
ReGrained — Reducing food waste through upcycling technology.
• Active partnership development moving forward with 60+ companies across 20+ food & beverage sectors.
• Founder has given TED Talk, been awarded Forbes 30 Under 30, and co-founded Upcycled Food Association

ReGrained is revolutionizing the way we think about waste and ingredients. They’ve pioneered a patented technology to turn otherwise wasted outputs of the supply chain into better-for-you ingredients that can be used in almost any consumer product. What better way to reduce waste than re-purposing it into something delicious? I fully expect to see ReGrained as an ingredient in every consumer product within the next decade.
