THE INVESTMENT CLUB

At theFoodTechLab we have identified what we consider to be the industry transformation vectors with the most potential for development. Our permanent contact with the sector allows us to identify the initiatives that are being developed in each of these vectors.

We have built a network of investors linked to the agri-food sector that help us with project selection for their development.

We have a network of collaborators specialized in different technologies who participate in the analysis of projects.
The network of investors and members are also a source of project identification.

Thus, when we invest in a company, we do so with the commitment to become part of the team to support its development.

We invest in companies that have already passed their seed stage and that are thinking of financing their first stages of commercial development.

We want to participate at this stage of development with our knowledge.

TALKING NUMBERS

We invest between 100k and 500k per project, as the sole investor in the round or together with other investors. We play the role of lead Investor in some cases. Our maximum involvement term is 5 years.
