Whether you’re already deeply involved in FoodTech or you’re just starting out, I hope this guide will be helpful to you. As this is a living document updated every sometimes, feel free to submit ideas for adds and edits here (last update: March 12, 2024). Please note:

  • These are curated lists. Not everything and everyone are mentioned. But this will give you a very good platform to dig deeper.

  • These are lists. Not rankings.

  • While FoodTech is more downstream and AgTech is more upstream, I often refer to both as ‘FoodTech’ in this guide.

Thank you,
