Curious about who'll win the 2024 Euro? ⚽️🤔 We wanted to explore which of the semi-finalists is a winner in a slightly different field— alternative proteins! 🇫🇷 𝗙𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 France has solidified its position as a foodtech powerhouse, focusing on sustainability and innovation. Recently, top players like Danone, Michelin and Groupe Crédit Agricole have partnered to scale up precision fermentation—a leap towards more sustainable food systems. 🇪🇸 𝗦𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗻 On the alternative meat front, the Barcelona-based startup Heura Foods closed €40 million in Series B funding earlier this year. This marks one of the largest plant-based rounds in 2024, signaling strong growth potential in the Spanish market. 🇳🇱 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 Known as a long time foodtech pioneer, the Netherlands is where the first cultured hamburger was born 10 years ago. They are also the first EU member state to approve pre-market tastings of cultivated meat! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱 And here’s something straight from the oven- just a few weeks ago The Bezos Center for Sustainable Protein at Imperial College London launched with US$30 million dollars in funding! So who's your winner this year? 🏆 #Euro2024 #Foodtech #Innovation #Sustainability #Imagindairy #FutureOfFood

𝗕𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗠𝗼𝗼𝗼𝘃𝗲, 𝗗𝗲𝗻𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸! 🐄🇩🇰 Holy cow! Denmark's breaking new ground by introducing the world’s first carbon tax on agriculture, aimed right at the dairy and meat sectors. The plan will impose a tax of $100 per year for each cow, aiming to significantly reduce the nation's agricultural emissions, which currently account for 22.4% of its total climate footprint. It’s a big leap towards green, but let's be real: getting to carbon neutral (especially by 2050) is going to take more than just taxes. It’s going to take innovation... and deliciousness! The key is to make it easier for consumers to make better choices for the planet, and that’s where we come in! At Imagindairy, we're not just making alternatives; we're making "can't-believe-it's-not-dairy" delights🍦🧀🥛🍫 Which country do you think will be next? 👀 #Sustainability #FoodTech #DairyDoneDifferently #ClimateAction

Spring has sprung, and with it this year, we're celebrating both #Passover and #WorldEarthDay on the same day - today! 🌱 Passover is a Jewish holiday that commemorates liberation and symbolizes freedom and #spring. At the same time, World Earth Day is here to remind us to cherish and protect our planet. Celebrating these two meaningful occasions together is an opportunity to reflect on the connection between tradition, preservation, and the future. Much like we tell the story of the Haggadah every year, and pass it down from one generation to another, World Earth Day is a reminder of the importance of preserving our planet not only for us, but also for the next generations. 🌳💚 In this holiday spirit, we wish you all peaceful days, freedom, a joyous Passover, and a Happy Earth Day! #happypassover #dairydonedifferently #generationtogeneration #preservation #sustainability
