At Impact Loop's meet-up yesterday in Stockholm, investors made it clear they're keen to support resilience-focused startups in food, forestry, and agriculture – but they're struggling to find enough of them.
Tuesday morning's event brought together investors, entrepreneurs, and other key players in the impact space to discuss the theme: Investing in and building resilience companies in food, forestry and agriculture.
During a panel discussion, representatives from leading Swedish investors – Andreas Hörnfeldt (Head of New Business at Sweden's largest forest owners' association), Johanna Rahm Juhlin (Head of Investments at LRF Ventures, the farmers' association in Sweden), and Rebecka Kornfeld (Senior Associate at stately owned venture capital firm Industrifonden) – all voiced strong interest in solutions that can make food production, farming, and forestry in Sweden more efficient, resilient, or innovative.
