May 11 2026 | International Startup Area by Sesamers - Hall 2
Hours: 14:30 - 15:00
Presented by Sesamers
Some of the most relevant food innovation comes from founders who do not call themselves food companies. This panel explores how startups at the intersection of materials, climate, and food waste position themselves for investment, which metrics cross-sector investors use to evaluate them, and how to avoid being pigeonholed when your product touches food but your market does not stop there.
Speaker:
Susanna Potenza, Investor, Primo Climate (Italy)
Ivan Calimani, CEO and founder, Krillmat (Italy)
Moderator:
Zivile Einikyte, Creator, MC, Perception Paradox (Denmark)
