Innovation Program: Tastech

Tastech is a program that aims to find the most innovative and disruptive startups and scaleups in the world to collaborate with Sigma. During the first edition of Tastech by Sigma, the finalist projects had access to financial support for the development of the pilots, the company’s infrastructure, and the knowledge of its specialists to develop their disruptive ideas, with the aim of improving process automation, developing new foods and ingredients, and identifying new business models in food production, distribution, and marketing. Sigma has launched the third edition of its Tastech by Sigma accelerator program. With its open innovation programs and its calls for projects, Sigma is committed to promoting the development of technological solutions, products, and services to generate impact and improve the customer experience

The results

More than 900 startups from 41 countries have participated in Tastech, which has given place to investments, a distribution contract, and other collaboration agreements in the process. Since 2019, Tastetch has continued collaborating with the entrepreneurial ecosystem and promoting high-potential projects in the food industry.

“Through Tastech, Sigma opens its doors to entrepreneurs from around the world to share their knowledge, make pilot tests jointly, and implement new technologies and solutions that boost the future of the food industry. We are excited to find new ideas and support the talent of the most innovative and disruptive food startups”– Daniel Alanis, Chief Growth Officer at Sigma
