Demo Day: Reflecting on the Future of Food

Recently, Tyson Ventures hosted our first Demo Day, where startups and innovators from all over the world were invited to pitch their breakthrough, sustainable ideas and help us transform the way the world eats. While the panel included several of our Executive Leadership Team (ELT), team members from across the enterprise were also invited to apply to become a Ventures Innovation Partner (VIP). 

These 16 VIPs, alongside our ELT, helped choose six exciting startups – from dexterous robotic hands to a reinvented trucking system to animal welfare – to move forward with conversations toward potential partnerships. Read on as VIPs reflect on the experience and what Demo Day means for the future of food.
