Portfolio Spotlight

Terra Bioindustries is an agri-food upcycling company transforming brewers’ spent grain into high-value ingredients for the global food and beverage industry. Their platform converts food waste into cost-competitive sugars and great-tasting plant proteins, helping manufacturers reduce emissions, improve products, and unlock new revenue streams.

We invested in Terra because they exemplify the founders we back: deeply technical, impact-driven, and building scalable circular-economy solutions that are often overlooked by traditional capital.
