ProSeed is dedicated to reducing the negative impact of food processing by revalorizing waste.

Each year, 18 million tons of wet by-products are wasted in Europe’s food industry. We turn this challenge into an opportunity by helping producers upcycle them into high-nutrition ingredients, creating new revenue streams.

Our containerized modular drying unit seamlessly integrates into existing infrastructure, providing a low-CAPEX, low-OPEX solution. While we currently focus on brewer’s spent grain and oat okara, our highly scalable and versatile technology unlocks the full potential of various food industry by-products across multiple sectors

Strengthening crop resilience through enhanced plant fertility and diverse soil biology.

At GenoRobotics, we develop innovative DNA-based biodiversity monitoring solutions to accelerate ecosystem assessment and regeneration efforts. Our field-deployable DNA sequencing tools enable researchers, conservationists, and industries to rapidly identify plant and aquatic species with minimal infrastructure.

Picterra bridges the gap between the physical and digital worlds, transforming satellite and drone imagery into verifiable data for ESG, compliance, and sustainability. Instead of relying on manual audits or self-reported claims, our GeoAI-powered platform delivers precise, visual, and verified evidence to track land use, detect environmental changes.

Aquascope can model entire catchments or individual farms to detect the 'waterprint' of land use and water users. With this data we support clients with the evidence needed for investment and reporting for targets and nature credits.

Biomede (Natur'tech award by Givaudan, Nurture the future award by In Vivo and finalist LVMH innovation) maps pollutants in soils and naturally remove them using plants so-called hyperaccumulative to regenerate soils.

Composite Recycling has developed a profitable, sustainable solution to recycle composite material waste into saleable products with ready markets and existing applications.
