NWO Take-off grant for former PhD student Dimitri Karefyllakis
Dimitri Karefyllakis, former PhD student of the Biobased Chemistry and Technology (BCT) and Food Process Engineering (FPE) chair groups, received a NWO Take-off grant to kickoff his own start-up Timetravelling Milkman.
After his graduation in May 2019, Dimitri founded Timetravelling Milkman to utilize plant-based fats and proteins for sustainable and appetizing diary alternatives.
With the support of BCT, FPE, and NWO Dimitri will now explore oleosome technology to create plant-based ingredients that mimic milk fat.
NWO's Take-off program aims to support starting academic enterpreneurs to bring their ideads and results to the market.
