Sustainable Food Accelerator (Bezos Centre & Undaunted)
infoAbout this program
Run by the Bezos Centre for Sustainable Protein and Undaunted, both based at Imperial College London and funded by the Bezos Earth Fund and UKRI. The twelve-month programme is aimed at the gap between a validated result in the lab and a commercial pilot, and it is equity-free. Its distinguishing feature is corporate commitment: partners including Cargill, Danone and Mars put up pilot budgets for ventures that hit agreed milestones. Trade coverage puts the equity-free funding at up to £100,000 per venture, so confirm the current figure on the programme page before budgeting around it.
