A delegation of 10 leading Israeli foodtech companies traveled to London last week for the first-ever Israeli foodtech trade mission to Britain. Organized jointly by the Israeli Export Institute, Israeli Embassy in London, British Embassy in Israel, and Good Food Institute, the visit aimed to foster connections between the Israeli innovators and key players in Britain's retail and investment sectors.
Throughout the program, the Israeli companies had the opportunity to present their cutting-edge technologies and products through meetings, tastings, and networking events with major British retailers. Discussions allowed the foodtech pioneers to explore potential partnerships and pathways for their plant-based, cultivated, and alternative protein offerings to reach British consumers. The event connected the Israeli delegation with influential figures across Britain's food scene, including chefs, bloggers, journalists, and other industry stakeholders.
The landmark exchange underscores Israel's emergence as a global foodtech hub and presages deepening culinary ties between the two nations in the years ahead.
