Welcome to the HM Food Tech Foundry

Your commercial growth team from pre-revenue to successful exit and everything in between.

We know monetizing a world-changing idea in the food and nutrition space is a monumental task. The tension between mission and money is real. And there are countless worries that lead to sleepless nights: investor relations, compliance, operations, market fit, pipeline, talent gaps, and long sales cycles – just to name a few.

The good news is, these issues aren’t so troublesome when you have the right plans, processes and people in place.
