Nurturing the Food Startup Economy was hosted in-person and also live-streamed from The Grove at Western Fair District on April 28, 2022.

The event featured presentations from startups in the agri-food industry based at The Grove who have partnered with Fanshawe College's Centre for Research & Innovation (CRI) on research & development projects to take their businesses to exciting growth opportunities.
