#19 Co-founder of Tempty Foods - Creating Foods for the Future Based on Mycoprotein - Cecilie Engvang Lund
In this episode, we are talking with Cecilie Engvang Lund, the co-founder of the Most Popular Plant-based Product for 2023. Alongside her co-founders Martina Lokajov and Ana Pejic, they are on a mission to create the next generation alternatives to tofu and meat, based on mycoprotein. Mycoprotein is a highly sustainable and nutritious vegan-friendly ingredient made from fungi, one of the world's oldest living organisms.
In this episode, you will be inspired by true passion and a team-spirit that all investors could only dream of. The Tempty girls met in a food innovation course at DTU, where they came together with completely different backgrounds but shared the same ambition to change our current food system. They quickly matched around the concept of using alternative protein, mycelium, to develop foods of the future. Ever since, they have been on an impressive growth journey.
