Four Star Mushrooms - a Chicago startup to watch! We know you are already watching us, but now it's official! Chicago Inno named us on their Chicago Startup Watch List, and we couldn't be more thrilled. Our founders Joe Weber and Sean DiGioia started with an idea to grow mushrooms year-round (and we are up to 7 varieties right now!) with quality and sustainability being the foundation of our brand. We turn the organic byproducts from production into a rich soil additive used to regenerate soil and, ultimately, our food system. Our model is a carbon-negative, zero-waste vertically integrated food system.

🤔 What business model makes sense for cultivated meat when scaling? Particularly when funding from venture capital isn't guaranteed. 💡The answer lies in collaboration with other stakeholders, particularly larger food companies, according to Mihir Pershad, CEO of Umami Bioworks, StartLife Accelerate alumnus. “Our view is that startups cannot be in the capex business. Instead, we need to figure out where we can tap into expertise, capital and muscle from existing industry and use that to help us scale however we can.” Dive more into Mihir's views in his interview with Elaine Watson, in AgFunder News. 👇 📰 https://lnkd.in/e7eE8Rqs #foodtechnology #cultivatedmeat #innovation #funding #sustainability #scaling #agrifoodtech

Discover three of the most interesting #FoodTech startups in Italy!😋 Fifth week of our "Top Three Italian Startups list" format, in which Arcadia showcases interesting startups that are changing pervasive technology sectors. Today it's the turn of FoodTech, so here are three of the most promising Italian startups that use food technologies to create new sustainable foods or to use food waste as a real resource:🌱 Bi-rex is a Milanese startup that transforms agro-food waste into prolific resources. Through eutectic solvents, cellulose and chitin are extracted from the treated biomasses, compounds that find industrial applications in the production of bioplastics, advanced fabrics or paper. Since its foundation in 2022, Bi-rex has raised €250k from 20Fund for its ambitious project.🌳 Let's go to Parma where we find TomaPaint another startup working to make packaging more sustainable using food technologies. Here, it is the tomato processing process that provides the waste that TomaPaint uses to create a bio-resin from which a bio-lacquer is obtained that can replace synthetic lacquers used in metal food packaging.🍅 Finally, we remain in Parma to discover Dreamfarm foods a startup for real "Italian food lovers" that manages to create plant-based alternatives to some dairy products and cheeses through the fermentation of raw almonds grown on Italian soil. The peculiarity of Dreamfarm's new dairy products is that they are not only sustainable, but also have an excellent nutritional profile and a practically unique taste!🧀 Follow Arcadia to discover other top three #startups!
