A crescendo of anticipation marked the finale of the 4th edition of EWA Programme in Türkiye, orchestrated under the aegis of EIT Food and in partnership with Foodback in collaboration with Topraktan. The event unfolded as a testament to the commitment to empower women within the dynamic realms of agrifood.
The spotlight shone brightly on Microhobist, securing the coveted 1st Place.
Their visionary project, inspired by nature's microorganisms, promised a paradigm shift in sustainable agriculture, particularly in enhancing soil fertility.
Claiming the distinguished 2nd Place, Palgae emerged triumphant with a groundbreaking initiative contributing to the circular economy.
Transforming algae into bioplastic granules using wastewater from food agriculture factories, Palgae's venture held the promise of a more sustainable and eco-conscious future.
As applause echoed through the entrepreneurial corridors, we extend our heartfelt congratulations to Microhobist and Palgae, now etched as champions in the 4th EWA Türkiye Programme. Beyond individual victories, these projects exemplified the programme's overarching mission—shaping a future where agrifood entrepreneurship thrives sustainably.
The EWA Türkiye Demo Day served not only as a platform for recognition but also as a testament to the collective dedication of every participant. As we navigate the intricate landscape of Turkish agrifood entrepreneurship, these initiatives paved the way for transformative journeys that resonated far beyond the confines of this moment.
