Gaining Momentum

TheFoodTechLab is a verified venture capital and investment club entity based in Spain and Israel, targeting the agri-food tech sector with a target fund size of €30M and approximately 10 confirmed portfolio investments (e.g., BlueRedGold, Brevel). However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing hallucinations ('audience reach: everyone', 'most people have used my product') and mislabeled metrics ('marketcap: 17000000' likely referring to AUM). While the project demonstrates real-world utility and verified traction through partnerships with Beka Asset Management, the score is heavily penalized by the unreliable and inaccurate submission details.
