<\/span><\/h3>\n

The primary areas includes ranges from food science and technology to products development and services \u2013 including regenerative agriculture and sustainable packaging. The Nestl\u00e9 Youth Entrepreneurship Platform, a new digital platform for young innovators and entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n

YEP brings together all Nestl\u00e9\u2019s existing innovation initiatives and programs in one place. The platform gives young innovators access to The Nestl\u00e9 Entrepreneurship Academy plus dedicated programs to grow knowledge, learn new skills and gain experience. It also offers resources and content tailored to specific geographic locations.<\/p>\n

Stefan Palzer, Nestl\u00e9 CTO, said, \u201cAt Nestl\u00e9 we work with startups, entrepreneurs, innovators and researchers to drive innovation, bring good ideas to market fast and provide nutritious, sustainable and affordable products for a growing world population.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOur new digital platform supports young people to bring great ideas to life across the food value chain, shaping the future of food!\u201d<\/p>\n

Key programs available on Nestl\u00e9\u2019s Youth Entrepreneurship Platform include:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nestl\u00e9 R+D Accelerator: entrepreneurs can apply for challenges at one of Nestl\u00e9\u2019s 12 Accelerators across the world, to focus on developing disruptive food and beverage innovations and bringing them to market in six months.<\/p>\n

Participants can work together with Nestl\u00e9\u2019s R&D experts from around the world, such as food technologists, nutritionists, regulatory and food safety experts, designers and packaging experts. Each team also receives hands-on support from dedicated innovation coaches and mentoring from Nestl\u00e9\u2019s senior management.<\/p>\n

Purina unleashed: The first and only pet-care program to support innovative start ups. It is focused on leveraging technology for owners and pets.<\/p>\n

Numerous Nestl\u00e9 market initiatives. For example, Ignite Ideas (Nestl\u00e9 Hellas) supports startups and individuals; Reto Culinario (El Salvador), is an entrepreneurial contest and TV show that showcases youth culinary innovation; CEO X Youth Connect (East and Southern Africa), enables young people to engage with CEOs of large companies active in Nestl\u00e9\u2019s Alliance for YOUth.<\/p>\n

According to the International Labour Organization, (ILO), two-thirds of five young people are either unemployed, or have a job that keeps their family in poverty. For this reason, Nestl\u00e9 launched Nestl\u00e9 Needs YOUth in 2013. The company\u2019s Global Youth Initiative helps young people gain the skills they need to thrive in tomorrow\u2019s workplaces. It has helped more than 4,000,000 young people around the globe through its three pillars: employability, agripreneurship, and entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n

Entrepreneurship can be a positive choice. This is a way to unlock innovation, skills and energy that will drive economic and social development. Through the new platform, Nestl\u00e9 is encouraging this, and is investing in early-stage companies and helping young entrepreneurs to put their ideas into practice.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYoung entrepreneurs need guidance, support, and above all, opportunities and platforms where their voices can be heard and their ideas realized. This includes building their knowledge and skills, testing their ideas in real-life situations, getting feedback from their audiences and receiving support to take their concept to the next level\u201d said Laurent Freixe, Nestl\u00e9\u2019s<\/a><\/strong> CEO for Latin America and founder of the Nestl\u00e9 Needs YOUth initiative.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Nestl\u00e9 Youth Entrepreneurship Platform will help equip them with the skills, experience and mindset they need to kick-start their idea and business.\u201d<\/p>\n

Access to the Nestl\u00e9 Youth Entrepreneurship Platform is free, presenting an attractive opportunity for young innovators to transform the future of food and collaborate with Nestl\u00e9 towards a regenerative food system at scale.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
