One of the ways Manna Tree is able to uncover relevant investment opportunities is by investing time and resources back to the food industry and organizations that provide support to growth-stage companies. We support two of the world’s leading organizations making an impact in the nutrition industry.
We are excited to announce our sponsorship of Future Food Tech and Nutrition Capital Network. Both of these companies provide cutting-edge, thought-leading events and content surrounding health, nutrition, and sustainability.
