About Björn Öste:
Leadership in Sustainable Nutritional Foods and “Oat Nerd”!
The last 21 years I have spent traveling across the globe building markets and supply chains. My focus has been on the business development side. Identifying industry partners, investor groups, various subject matter experts across multiple fields, markets and disciplines. I see virtually endless opportunities in the “high tech” food industry where the incumbents have surrendered product innovation to small, focused and dedicated expert companies like the ones I represent. It is exceptionally rewarding to be able to work with products on a global scale that make real and meaningful difference in the daily lives of many individuals.
