Generate within Nexture, launched a new open call for startups, inviting pioneering food-tech and ingredient-tech companies to apply to the Generate Programme 2026 from March 16 to May 4, 2026.
It is the company’s open innovation hub, a platform that sparks the creation of tomorrow’s food solutions thanks to collaborations with startups, peers and food companies, contributing to a more sustainable, nourishing and resilient food system.
It offers tailored 12-to-18-month programmes to ingredient pioneers, granting them access to application opportunities, cutting-edge R&D facilities and commercial support. By validating proofs of concept and enabling industrial scale-up through the company’s ecosystem – including CSM Ingredients, HIFOOD, Frulact, Vitalfood by Italcanditi, Comprital and Prodotti Rubicone – the programme accelerates the journey from breakthrough idea to market-ready solution.
Emanuele Pizzigalli, chief innovation officer at Nexture, said, “Through Generate, we aim to identify and partner with the most promising ingredient innovators tackling the key challenges of our industry. The 2026 Open Call reflects the strategic areas where we see the strongest need for transformation – from healthier formulations and advanced functionality to resilient supply chains and sustainable fat solutions. We are looking for bold, science-driven startups ready to scale their impact together with us.”
