Already covering over 15,000 hectares of palm plantations in Sri Lanka, the technology offers early detection of stress factors, such as dehydration and pest infestations, enabling farmers to boost yields and reduce waste. They now plan to work with local partners to finesse and localize their solution for the UAE and scale its application across the Middle East.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HyveGeo<\/strong> turns agricultural waste into a carbon-rich biochar, then enriches it with microbes to create a high-performance soil enhancer. This circular, nature-based approach is already being used by farmers and landscape managers across the UAE, transforming arid, desert soil into fertile, arable land. As winners, they plan to expand their research and launch pilots in markets across the Global South.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Akorn Technology\u00a0<\/strong>produces a\u00a0natural, edible\u00a0coating for fruit and vegetables, including a vegetable protein to slow ripening,\u00a0<a name=\"m_6175847588693741517_x__Int_4J8fafuJ\"><\/a>a wax\u00a0to reduce moisture loss, and\u00a0<a name=\"m_6175847588693741517_x__Int_TNqDynGK\"><\/a>a vegetable\u00a0oil to maintain color. Their solution is already being used in Egypt and Ghana to extend the shelf life of produce and cut post-harvest losses,\u00a0and will now be optimized for use in the UAE and\u00a0arid environments\u00a0across the region.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Flybox\u00a0<\/strong>uses\u00a0black soldier fly larvae to convert agricultural byproducts into high-quality protein and\u00a0\u00a0fertilizer,\u00a0whilereducing waste sent to landfill. Housed in shipping containers, their\u00a0off-grid, low-cost solution\u00a0is currently being used\u00a0in Uganda, Kenya and Nigeria, and will now\u00a0launch in the UAE, with plans for working with local waste management partners to deploy at scale.<\/p>\n<p>From an initial pool of 1,215 submissions from 113 countries, ten finalists advanced to the final stage of the competition, presenting their solutions in live pitches to an international judging panel comprising senior leaders and experts in food systems, sustainability, investment, and international development. Following evaluation, the four winning startups were announced during an awards ceremony on the Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week main stage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rima Al Mokarrab, Chair of Tamkeen and Co-Chair of the FoodTech Challenge<\/strong>, remarked:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cBuilding resilient and secure food systems is central to the UAE\u2019s long-term vision for a prosperous future. The latest winners of the UAE FoodTech Challenge now join a growing community of past awardees, who have since raised over USD 48 million in follow-on funding and launched more than 50 pilot projects across the UAE and other markets. As they begin this next phase of their journey, support from our network of partners and UAE&#8217;s world-class innovation ecosystem will serve as a launchpad for their solutions, enabling them to contribute to more resilient and sustainable food systems in the UAE, the global south, and worldwide.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The four teams will share a USD 2 million prize and will be invited to scale their solutions in the UAE, where they will receive tailored in-kind support, including pilot opportunities, access to research facilities, market-entry guidance, mentorship, and investor introductions through an extensive network of local and international partners. From this base, the winners will work to deploy and scale their solutions across key markets in the Global South, supporting more resilient and sustainable food systems.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fatema Almulla, Senior Specialist Development, International Affairs Office at the UAE Presidential Court<\/strong>, said:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThe UAE plays a leading role in international development, with agricultural innovation central to its global engagement. Through the UAE FoodTech Challenge, winning startups are embedded within a proven development ecosystem; where advanced technologies, policy leadership, and global expertise come together to accelerate solutions from pilot to scale. This is how innovation is translated into measurable impact, from the UAE to climate-vulnerable regions worldwide.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s FoodTech Challenge is organized by the International Affairs Office at the UAE Presidential Court and Tamkeen, in partnership with the Gates Foundation, ne\u2019ma (The National Food Loss and Waste Initiative), and Silal.\u00a0The finalist cohort represents a diverse range of approaches to food system innovation, including advanced technologies for post-harvest preservation, waste-to-value conversion, precision agriculture, and resource-efficient food production.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Shelly Sundberg,\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Deputy\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Director of Adaptive and Equitable Food Systems at the Gates Foundation<\/strong>, said:<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>The UAE FoodTech Challenge plays an important role in advancing practical, scalable, and accessible solutions that can strengthen food security across underserved and climate-vulnerable populations. At the Gates Foundation, we are proud to support initiatives that translate innovation into real-world impact, helping food systems reduce loss, improve sustainability, and expand access to safe, affordable and nutritious\u00a0food<\/em>.\u00a0<em>These are essential to building more resilient food systems in the face of climate and economic pressures.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Khuloud Nowais, Chief Sustainability Officer at Emirates Foundation and Secretary General of the ne\u2019ma Steering Committee,\u00a0<\/strong>said:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cSeeing the caliber of this year\u2019s winners and the diversity of their solutions has been truly inspiring.
