Largest Sprout Accelerator Cohort Set to Ignite the Future of Global Agrifood Innovation

From ground-breaking applications of AI and robotics to advancements in sustainable materials, bio-based solutions, and environmental monitoring, the Sprout Accelerator Spring25 Cohort represents an exciting future for the global agrifood value chain.

We are excited to welcome our largest cohort yet, with 18 innovative early-stage ventures joining us on their entrepreneurial journey to discover, articulate and refine the foundations to grow their startup. Despite more spots being available in the cohort this year, the calibre of the shortlisted ventures was exceptionally high, making the selection process extremely competitive.

Head of Acceleration and Engagement, Chelsea Hirst, shared her thoughts on the upcoming cohort, "It is such a privilege to be sharing this three-month adventure with each of the selected ventures in our Spring25 cohort. This cohort will benefit from our new startup foundation framework, which is built on the insights we’ve gained from working with hundreds of early-stage founders and innovators. The framework is designed to help founders understand what to articulate, how to articulate it, and how to fill any gaps - to build a solid foundation from day one. We’re excited to get the Sprout Accelerator underway next week with a cohort of inspiring founders and innovators!”

Over the next few months, each venture will undergo an intensive acceleration journey. Leveraging weekly online sessions with two in-person Underground events, the Spring25 cohort will surface their venture story during the final virtual Showcase to an audience of investors and industry representatives.

Join us in congratulating the Sprout Accelerator Spring25 Cohort. Meet them here:
