Founder | Food & Health InnovationsAs a driven individual with a passion for addressing systemic societal issues, I bring unique insights and a wealth of experience to the table. My entrepreneurial journey began during my studies at Wageningen University, where I co-founded Tinyfoods, a start-up focused on promoting sustainable protein sources through the consumption of edible insects. The start-up was acquired after only two years and offered me a valuable learning experience, including leading the Marketing and Sales strategy, expanding the business to the Benelux and UK regions, and gaining expertise in business modeling, development, marketing, and general management.I have continued to thrive in the Food & Agri startup sector, working as a coach and analyst at StartLife and as a program manager for startups at the BCGV. With my extensive knowledge and network in the domains of Food, Health, and Agritech, I am passionate about disruptive technologies and their potential to make a positive impact.Presently, I serve as the Business Development Manager for Health, Nutrition, and Behavior at OnePlanet Research Center. As the Business Development Manager, I am responsible for securing funding and building public-private partnerships to bring ground-breaking innovations to market within the Health, Nutrition, and Behavior domains.Let's connect for a virtual coffee and a stimulating conversation about innovative solutions for a brighter tomorrow.Contact: joar.nilssen@ru.nl
