Innovation in an urban food system

“What role do cities, companies and research play in the urban food system? And what innovative work is required for us to be able to eat good, healthy and sustainable food?” Johan Jörgensen talks at a lunch seminar at Stockholm City Hall on how the city’s actors can work together to reduce the climate impact of food and create a resilient urban food system.

The convenience store of the future contributes to a sustainable food system for the next generation. It is a place that promotes innovation and development in the food chain and makes it easy for new entrepreneurs and companies to enter the market.

Chefs and Food tech

At the Big Meet in Stockholm this year, we were happy to welcome Asif Culinary Institute, together with a delegation of Israeli chefs to the Test Kitchen. Read about their experience and listen in to their panel “Cooking up a better future: Technology, Tradition and an Israeli Recipe for our Food System”.

Testimonials

"I participated with Kaffe Bueno for the first time in 2023 and had an excellent experience. Having multiple chefs experimenting with our ingredients in front of me and being able to get their feedback on real-time was a uniquely valuable way to increase our understanding of the USPs of our ingredients."
Alejandro Franco, Kaffe Bueno

"Big Meet was the first exhibition we were offered to take part in a "test kitchen" format. We found the meeting with leading chefs very useful - first for getting feedback on our product, and second, as an opportunity to open new collaboration options after the event. The chefs chosen were very cooperative, presented unique dishes, allowed to use their names and recommendations on social media and even shared the recipes for the dishes they served. We saw that the audience got enthusiastic with the format and mainly gathered next to the kitchen.
After the show, we were able to keep in touch with 2/4 chefs, and their restaurants became our clients."
Gali Fried, Vanilla Vida

We wish to thank everyone involved that contributed in making the Big Meet 2023 the spectacular event that it was meant to be. A round of applause to all the Speakers for sharing their thoughts and visions and to the Chef’s for making magic in the Test Kitchen and a big thank you to our amazing partners for believing in what we do and making this happen with us!

Sweden Foodtech Big Meet conference is the platform of choice to showcase our advanced sous-vide aseptic packaging (ASAP) technology.
The Foodtech Village has been and is still important for Grönska. Through the network we have made new contacts and thanks to them we have a clear ”sammanhang” within the Swedish foodtech.
We are pleased to be part of this amazing community of innovators and changemakers! During the last year, we had the opportunity to join a series of events representing our community.
