Are you curious about joining the BioSustainability Design Fellowship, but not sure if your background is “agri‑food enough”? The short answer: No, you don’t need prior experience from the agri‑food industry to apply. What we do look for is: - A solid professional track record (5 years of relevant industry experience, or a relevant degree + 3 years’ experience – student jobs can count) - A strong motivation to work with sustainability and innovation in the global food system - An open, collaborative mindset – and a willingness to learn from other disciplines Experience from agri‑food is not a requirement. We actively welcome profiles from e.g. design, engineering, data science, business, UX, logistics, marketing, policy, etc. Each team will include at least one fellow with agri‑food experience – but we also need “outsider” perspectives to challenge lock‑ins in the value chain. 👉 Apply now!
