I had the great fortune to join WTI's annual meeting in Menlo Park this year. A lot of amazing companies in their portfolio.
Funding climate breakthroughs is at the same time amongst the most important and the most unclear spaces in VC. Many thanks to @eqtventures @tedpersson @sandraemalmberg for inviting @SupplantCompany to join this important initiative.

When we hit 4 approved patents, we took our feet off the throttle to focus on other parts of the business. We just hit 12... Testament to all the hard work the team put in beforehand - the steamroller just keeps moving!
What if we could TRIPLE the amount of food we produce WITHOUT farming more land? This is what @SupplantCompany does. 2/3rd of crop mass is wasted because it's undigestible. Supplant's developed enzymes to break this down into healthy, edible, functional sugars and flours…

Major front page story from @BBCNews today! In the newsreel ahead of Russia-North Korea alliance... A chip shop in Cornwall is charging £2 for mayonnaise! Where would the nation be without 🇬🇧
Ever since leaving academia I have really noticed how academics think they're the only people in the world actually doing anything. The real irony is when I was in academia, many people acted like 'why don't you get a real job?'

It was great to be back in @christs_college's magnificent dining hall on Friday for an after dinner speech at this year's @CJBS_EC Masters program. Best of luck to all the students on your promising ventures! You're in great hands👏

Seems like a lot of people don't trust any conventional nutritional advice any more. Food pyramids... Recommended daily allowances... etc... Who do you trust on healthy eating today?
Fiber is the only macronutrient that almost every American is deficient in. 95% get less than recommended amount 😯 So why is everyone so obsessed with protein?
Our experience is that only 2 attributes really drive food choices: 'Healthier' & 'Great Taste'. But 35% think the biggest problem in food is Food Security, and 11% think Sustainability. To those people: What would make you want to buy food that was better on those fronts?

It's 2023, and we've never understood more about food science and nutrition than we do today. And yet, the public have never been more confused about what constitutes a healthy diet. Why is that? 🤔
Item #1 in understanding @SupplantCompany mission. The Forgotten Half of the Harvest (stems, stalks, cobs, husks, hulls) is the most abundant and wasted agricultural product. It's the biggest opportunity to make more, healthier and more sustainable food.
What in your opinion is the biggest problem with our food system?
When animals help humans connect on a truly deep level. 🙏 @SupplantCompany mascot Noah 🐶
Daddy now has three babies in the fight for a better food system. The younger boys look up to their big brother @SupplantCompany so much that they wear his name like a badge of honour 😍
