Olesia Kotowska

Junior Project Manager @EIT Food

Warsaw, PL

Passionate about fostering innovation and entrepreneurship, I support start-ups and innovators in the CLC North-East region, particularly within the EIT Food RIS Strategy. I work extensively on the EWA (Empowering Women in Agrifood) programme, supporting female entrepreneurs in developing their businesses and leadership skills. My role involves identifying and mentoring entrepreneurial talents, evaluating innovative projects, and facilitating connections between start-ups, investors, and industry stakeholders. I collaborate with EIT Food Hubs, business incubators, accelerators, and policymakers to drive open innovation, knowledge transfer, and sustainable growth. At EIT Food, we are committed to building a more sustainable, innovative, and consumer-driven food system. By connecting entrepreneurs, investors, and policymakers, we accelerate innovation and foster impactful collaborations that shape the future of food. Let’s connect!
