NIZO and StartLife join forces

On 6 October, NIZO, a Contract Research Organisation in Food and Health, and StartLife, the Dutch agrifoodtech accelerator, announced that they have entered into a strategic and operational partnership to support food and agtech start-ups shaping a sustainable food system. Thanks to a blend of accelerator expertise and facilities, the strategic partnership can help start-ups with both individual challenges and longer-term plans.

A food revolution 

Both for start-ups as well as existing manufacturers, there is growing commercial pressure to show they are minimizing their environmental footprint. But amid all this change, one fact of food production remains constant. If it doesn’t have the right look, (mouth)feel and, above all, taste – it won’t sell. This is where the partnership between StartLife and NIZO comes in. Together, they provide start-ups with promising solutions, and the facilities and services needed to get their products market-ready.
