Furry Green Pets Joins Startupbootcamp FoodTech Tasmania 2024 Cohort! 🐾🌱

Hey fur-parents and eco-warriors! 👋 We've got some PAW-some news to share! 🎉

Guess what? Furry Green Pets has been chosen as one of the top 10 innovators for the Startupbootcamp FoodTech Tasmania 2024 cohort! 🏆 We're absolutely THRILLED to bits and can't wait to embark on this incredible journey! 🚀

🌍 What's the big deal, you ask? Well, we're joining forces with 9 other groundbreaking companies from around the globe, each bringing unique ideas to revolutionize the food sector. And guess what? We're the only pet food company in the mix! 🐱🐶

So, what's our claim to fame? 🤔

At Furry Green Pets, we're on a mission to turn edible food waste into delicious, nutritious meals for our furry friends. 🍽️ Yep, you heard that right! We're taking the "waste not, want not" approach to a whole new level.

Why does this matter? 🌎

1. We're tackling food waste head-on! Did you know that roughly one-third of the world's food goes to waste? That's BANANAS! 🍌 (Pun intended)
2. We're creating sustainable, planet-friendly pet food. Because our four-legged pals deserve the best AND a healthy planet to play on! 🌿
3. We're proving that being eco-conscious can be delicious too. No more choosing between taste and sustainability!

What's next for us? 🚀

From August to November, we'll be diving deep into the Startupbootcamp program. We'll be:

• Validating our business model for the Australian and global food sector
• Rubbing elbows (or should we say paws?) with industry experts
• Learning from the best in the biz
• Scaling up our operations to reach more pets and pet parents

We're contributing to some pretty cool themes too:
#CircularEconomy 🔄
#FoodAgritechAdvances 🌾
#FunctionalFood & #IngredientTech 🥗
#FermentationTech 🧫
#LabourProcessingSupplyChainTech 🏭
