FoodBytes! Pitch, is Rabobank’s discovery and networking program that builds lasting connections between sustainable food and ag startups, corporates and investors. The program has expanded from a 3 day in person gathering to a multi-week virtual engagement spanning from mid-October through early December.
We believe a diversity of products, people and ideas will drive the future of food and ag innovation, and our virtual program aims to champion global cross-collaboration. Welcoming 45 startups from around the world, FoodBytes! Pitch VIRTUAL will consist of private mentorship sessions, one-on-one connections and media opportunities for selected startups and partners. Selected by an industry-leading panel of judges, 15 of the 45 startups will then advance to the final stage of the program - a livestreamed public pitch competition - a virtual version of the FoodBytes! many of you know and love.
