UBEES drives innovation in making beekeeping a nature-based solutions for sustainability. We work with growers and global brands in achieving their net zero and regenerative agriculture objectives. Beekeeping and technology to contribute to sustaining the global food supply chain.

At La Vie™ we love meat, but much less its impact on life. Were on a mission to make people evolve from animal-based meat to plant-based, with a big happy smile on their face and some fat on their fingertips. Our patented vegetal fat recipe allows us to propose juicy plant-based meat. Experiences like no other. Jump on our shoulders, and follow our movement. From plants with Love, La Vie™.

Naïo Technologies is a French start-up, a pioneer and world leader in agricultural robotics. Since the company was founded just over ten years ago by two engineers, Aymeric and Gaëtan, Naïo believes it is possible to respect and celebrate our heritage while preparing for the future and our ecological transition towards a more environmentally friendly precision agriculture, ecosystems, and humans. Thats why Naïo develops 100% electric and autonomous robots that allow farmers to focus on higher value-added tasks (and let the robot take care of sowing, hoeing, or weeding), reduce the arduousness of work, or compensate for the lack of manpower. Today, Naïo Technologies has over 350 robots in circulation around the world, and more than 80 employees based mainly in Escalquens (near Toulouse in the South of France). The company is also present in California, in Salinas, the heart of fruit & vegetable production in the United States. Naïo is supported by investors such as Mirova (a leading actor in sustainable investment), Bpifrance, Capagro (the first European independent venture capital fund dedicated to innovative AgTech & FoodTech startups with impact), and Demeter (a fund specialized in supporting ecological transition).

CelluComp is a new and dynamic material science company based in Scotland that is at the forefront of developing high-tech products from sustainable sources. At CelluComp we believe there are better and more sustainable options to materials compared to some of the chemically-based or petroleum-based materials that are used today, which is why our vision is to promote Material Change for Good. Our principle activity is to develop and commercialize Curran®, our material developed from the extraction of nano cellulose fibers of root vegetables, such as carrots and sugar beets. Curran® offers exceptional mechanical properties (stiffness, strength and light weight) compared to other fiber reinforcements at an affordable price. With our production partner and our customers, we are developing products for both the composite and paints and coatings industries. Curran® has the capability to enhance products in sporting goods, construction, paints & coatings, cosmetics, automobile, marine and many other potential applications.
