Food, Agriculture & Biotech

From the chemicals we synthesise to the food we grow, humanity has spent centuries extracting short-term value from the natural world while degrading the long-term economic value beneath it.

With rising energy costs, climate-related food security concerns, and regulatory pressures, the need for scalable solutions that work with, rather than against, nature has never been more urgent. Rapid Innovation Group's FoodTech, AgTech, and BioTech team (FAB) was founded to resolve this very issue.

By combining stage-specific expertise with a market driven approach, the FAB team identifies and solves the challenges that block commercial deals and investment for solutions that are yet to be proven at scale, working hands-on with founders to execute on those critical activities. The practice has specific interest in the following:

• Green chemistry
• Industrial biotechnology
• Natural capital ecosystem
• Crop yield-enhancing technologies

We always want to hear from builders at the cutting-edge of these areas, and those looking to partner or invest in them.
