This rapidly growing sector promises to transform the way we nourish ourselves!

This third Position Paper (read the first and second here) offers interesting historical references to innovation in the chocolate sector, insights into target markets, and a comprehensive classification of some of the most intriguing startups operating in the field.

But that’s not all – GSV’s new Position Paper will take us on an in-depth journey into the innovative technology of cocoa alternatives with exclusive interviews featuring key players in the sector. Their insights and experiences provide invaluable perspectives at the forefront of food innovation.

All the information contained in the Position Paper is supported by concrete financial data from venture capital, shedding light on the investment landscape in this ever-expanding industry.

The goal is to provide the foodtech community with the knowledge and tools necessary for growth and success. The fusion of technical and financial data aligns with Grey Silo Ventures’ mission to equip the foodtech community with the knowledge and tools needed to foster the emergence and success of new and exciting technologies and startups. At the same time, it serves as an exploration ground for the R&I Department of Cereal Docks Group to contribute to the Group’s growth in the fields of nutrition and food-related wellness.
