Startup Stories with Upgrain

In this third edition of "Startup Stories," we’re excited to spotlight Upgrain, a Swiss startup that’s upcycling barley grains from the brewing process to produce protein and fiber powders for a variety of applications in the food industry. We caught up with the co-founders Vincent Vida and William Pyndt Beiskjær, to hear about their journey to discover the Chinese market.

You should set up your meeting before you're here because you're expected to hit the ground running and if you don't, you're going to be left behind.
