Our funding model

We operate a mixed funding model of donations and grants from generous, vision-aligned supporters, including a range of foundations, philanthropists, and members of the public. We also receive support from governments across Australia and New Zealand in the form of event sponsorship and commissioned future research.

As a not-for-profit organisation and endorsed Deductible Gift Recipient, all donations made to Food Frontier are tax-deductible. Every cent we receive is invested in driving Food Frontier’s high-impact programs, with comprehensive oversight by our Board of Directors.

We’ve supported Food Frontier from its early days and continue to be impressed by the team’s disciplined, sophisticated and highly strategic approach, which has achieved exponential influence for an organisation of their size. We could not be prouder to continue our support of their work to accelerate essential progress towards making our food systems safer, and more sustainable.

Nick Chadwick

Head

Food Frontier really helped us when we were establishing our plant-based start-up Eighth Day Foods. We are using a novel ingredient, and Food Frontier’s comprehensive and accurate resources helped us learn about how to market our product. They also made introductions to the people we needed for capital raising and industry connections, and were very enthusiastic about our success.

Jen Drew

Founder

Had it not been for a conversation with Food Frontier, I'd likely still be in fintech – but Food Frontier inspired me to start All G. We’ve built an amazing team reimaging meat and dairy using plant proteins and precision fermentation, and are well on our way with our Series A raise - already securing $25 million in investment with more announcements to come. Together we are designing a sustainable food future, by creating alternative proteins in dairy and meat categories. Thank you Food Frontier for your independence, your research, insights and connections – your leadership is gold!

Jan Pacas

CEO

Food Frontier’s trusted research data and insights assisted us in building our business case to successfully secure state government funding for our plant processing facilities in South Australia–one of the largest for public/private investment in this sector.
