"Agriculture is changing fast through a wide range of external influences that are highly affecting our clients. RootCamp's "Bioeconomy Deep Dives" give us a deeper understanding of biobased value chains, processes, and resources that have not yet fulfilled their potential in the transformation toward the bioeconomy, which could play an important role in creating more value for our clients. What sets RootCamp apart is their reach across the ecosystem of corporate partners, investors, and international startups."
