Bright Feeds, a Berlin-based startup, is working to solve the food waste crisis by turning unwanted food into high-quality animal feed.
But for CEO Jonathan Fife, that mission is a long way from where he started his career at an investment in New York City.
“While I was at the investment firm, I met our co-founder, Tim Rassias, who’s a serial entrepreneur who had started several successful businesses," Fife said.
“He originally had the idea and got me into this craziness.”
Fife and Rassias researched the food waste industry, and felt they could develop a technical solution to the problem.
Now, the company is growing. With more than 20 employees they are quickly expanding their capabilities.
