Expertise

Startle transforms early-stage research into real-world ventures that change the food system for good. We work across many subsectors in the industry, with a particular passion for improved sustainability and health. Please get in touch if you have an innovation challenge you would like to discuss. We partner with researchers & universities: Intellectual property that holds real promise for our food system often remains siloed in the lab. We identify and shepherd that IP through the broader food landscape to ensure science finds its ideal application in the real world. We partner with companies & corporations: We take your most promising uncommercialized or stranded technologies to then de-risk, validate, and launch—delivering sure-bet innovation a corporation can run with.
