Ignite20 isn't just cutting checks. The new $7 million venture capital fund and hybrid accelerator is lighting a fire under the next wave of CPG innovators. Launched in February 2025, Ignite20 was born out of the Redwood Ventures Group and is also backed by early-stage VC firm Santatera Capital and food distributor RPM Food. Over the next three years, the fund will invest in 60 early-stage startups across the health, beauty, food, beverage, and pet care industries – targeting 20 promising brands per year. Each selected company will receive a $50,000 capital investment, along with hands-on support from a network of operators, investors, and retail buyers. Through tactical mentorship, operational strategy, and founder-focused development, the program is designed to help brands grow sustainably and strategically. In this episode, we sit down with Gabriela Morales, Ignite20's co-founder and managing director, who shares how the fund is rethinking early-stage investing, the reason why margins matter more than price point, how categories like functional snacks and high-protein foods are redefining innovation, and the value of a 30-second video pitch. Show notes: 0:25: Interview: Gabriela Morales, Co-Founder & Managing Partner, Ignite20 – On location at Expo West 2025, Gabriela shares her first impressions of the industry's biggest stage and her journey from nutritionist and wellness entrepreneur to trailblazing venture investor. She also opens up about what fuels her investment philosophy, including her admiration for founders with true “fire in the belly.” Gabriela also dives into the traits she looks for in early stage brands, categories she views as poised for breakout growth, and her take on buzzy trends like better-for-you soda, adaptogens, and non-nutritive sweeteners. Plus, Gabriela unpacks why sustainable growth and velocity – not just profitability – are the metrics that really matter in today's CPG market.

What do the boardroom, your love life, and a poker table have in common? According to self-made billionaire Jenny Just, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of PEAK6 and Co-Founder of Poker Power, they're all places where women can learn to play—and win. From being one of the few women on the Chicago Board Options Exchange trading floor to founding and leading a fintech empire, Jenny's journey has been anything but ordinary. But it's her passion project, Poker Power, co-founded with her daughter, that's changing the game for women everywhere. Poker Power is a revolutionary company teaching women and girls to play poker in a safe and empowering environment. In Jenny's opinion, every woman should learn to play poker, not just for the thrill, but to become a powerful player in the real world. Poker teaches risk-taking, negotiation, and strategic thinking—skills that give women confidence and an edge in male-dominated spaces. From boosting boardroom performance to improving personal relationships, poker is the key to unlocking success in all areas of life. With a mission to teach one million women and girls the art of poker, Jenny is creating a movement that equips women to claim their seats at every table. Thanks for listening!

Journeys of Impact and Meaningful Connection: From Leaving with Loss to Building a 'Capitalist Kibbutz' in Silicon Valley Oded Hermoni, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of J-Ventures Group, carries a profound connection to his Jewish identity, notably shaped by the circumstances of his father's death in the Yom Kippur war. Born just 10 days after this event, Oded was named after his late father, and this experience, along with the support of his mother and stepfather, significantly influenced his life. His journey, spanning journalism, investments, and entrepreneurship, reflects a commitment to understanding the impact of his vision. Oded's move to Silicon Valley, marked as a major shift, emphasizes the transformative nature of his career choices. When reflecting on the loss of his father, Oded identifies three significant impacts: his name, his deep commitment to Zionism, and the profound experience of fatherhood. The significance of his name, "Oded Hermoni," becomes particularly poignant when he searches it online and sees it on his father's grave during visits. Throughout his varied career, including journalism, Oded underscores the importance of a mission-driven approach, aligning with his commitment to making a meaningful impact. He draws parallels between journalism and business, emphasizing the need to put ego aside, connect with people, and provide value. His involvement in various impact and social activities, as well as founding J-Ventures Group (J-Ventures+J-Impact), a Silicon Valley based Upside down VC fund with $70M AUM that he calls a "Capitalist Kibbutz"", to connect Israeli Startupsand Jews through investments. This further demonstrates his dedication to fostering connections within the Jewish community. J-Ventures is a unique VC model empowered by 430 men & women. It's the only VC backed by over 150 other GPs from VC funds, by over 100 serial founders (and invested in 18 of them), and by 200 Executives. The model changes the paradigm of GP/LP and Also of VC/ Founders. Oded's perspective on building a company emphasizes creating a positive community and inclusive environment, where everyone feels part of something significant. The emphasis on choosing colleagues based on shared values reflects Oded's belief in mutual support during challenging moments. Therefore, ask yourself both as an investor & a founder: "Are you a person I would enjoy being in his company for 7 years?" and then make a choice.

Straightforward advice can be hard to come by. Unless you're getting it from Melissa Facchina. An operations expert with over 25 years of experience in food and beverage manufacturing and services, Melissa co-founded growth equity firm Siddhi Capital in 2020. Initially focused on seed and venture capital funding for early-stage brands, Siddhi has since turned its attention to investments in high-growth companies, including Mid-Day Squares, Aura Bora, Magic Spoon and immi. As Siddhi pursues its mission of “changing the landscape of food and beverage for the better,” Facchina has emerged as a trusted and reliable voice within the industry, advising founders on how to build sustainable and successful businesses. Facchina's voice will become a regular fixture on Taste Radio as the investor joins the podcast for a regular series, which will feature her take on current topics and common questions related to investment in packaged food and beverage companies. This episode is the first (and extended) edition of the series, in which Facchina spoke about her background, career and the focus of Siddhi Capital, the pervasiveness of "bad information" circulating on Linkedin and why she believes that the vast amount of capital invested in food and beverage brands over the past decade has been to the detriment of the industry. She also discussed how entrepreneurs are faced with a shift in how investors perceive profitability and top-line revenue and her recommendations on how founders can navigate a potential recession. Show notes: 0:50: Melissa Facchina, Co-Founder & Managing Partner, Siddhi Capital – Facchina spoke with Taste Radio editor Ray Latif about the vision for “The Siddhi Sage,” how her family's business helped get her acclimated with various aspects of the food and beverage industry, why she believes a great operations strategy is the key to making healthy food more accessible and how her consulting firm Siddhi Ops created a foundation for Siddhi Capital. She also explained why venture capital has been flowing into the food and beverage industry and her perspective that the lack of attrition among upstart brands has cluttered the space and made it more challenging for founders to meet the expectations of investors. Later, she discussed why Linkedin has become inundated with unrealistic depictions of emerging brands, general confusion about how an investment firm's funds are raised and deployed and how she defines “a rockstar, unbelievable company,” Brands in this episode: Mid-Day Squares, Aura Bora, Magic Spoon, immi

According to a 2020 health survey conducted by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 41.9% of Americans aged 20 and over are obese. It's a frustrating statistic for public health officials whose advocacy for exercising more frequently and making better eating decisions can often fall on deaf ears. Those issues, however, are linked to the accessibility and affordability of healthy food and beverages. Yes, there are better-for-you options, but are they readily available at a reasonable cost to most consumers? That was a persistent question during Manna Tree's second annual Global Health Forum, hosted earlier this month at the firm's home base of Vail, Colorado. Founded on the belief that “the future of health, well-being and longevity is attainable through innovation in food,” Manna Tree invests in and actively partners with growth-stage companies, including Health-Ade, The New Primal, Urban Remedy, Gotham Greens, Verde Farms and Good Culture. Prior to attending the Global Health Forum, which featured presentations on metabolic health and how consumer behavior has shifted around the better-for-you segment, Taste Radio editor Ray Latif sat down with Manna Tree leaders Ross Iverson, Brent Drever and Steve Young for a trio conversations about the firm's investment strategy and how it relates to getting healthy and affordable food into the shopping carts of more consumers. We also discussed how entrepreneurs are faced with shifting expectations for bottom line and top line growth, their assessment of consumer confidence and spending, emerging food trends and ways that public institutions and private companies can align on common goals to positively impact global health. Show notes: 2:33: Ross Iverson, Co-Founder & Managing Partner, Manna Tree – The episode opens with Iverson, who briefly discussed how Manna Tree planned for the Global Health Forum before he spoke about how investors are assessing the strength of the U.S. economy amidst concerns of a recession, how the firm evaluates short- and long-term paths to profitability and why the firm is looking to make investments in food manufacturing. He also explained why Manna Tree is “super active” in the operations of its portfolio companies and how aligned groups of food and beverage brands might benefit by having a unified operating structure. 27:01: Brent Drever, Co-Founder & Managing Partner, Manna Tree – Drever spoke about the firm's work with state governors and federal legislators to improve public health, their assessment of companies' efforts to reduce sugar in their products, taking into account a range of consumer views on taste and health concerns and how they evaluate kids' packaged food and beverage brands. He also discussed Health-Ade's discontinued Pop line and the company's efforts to create new products for mainstream consumers and how he plans to navigate the show floor at Expo West 2023. 46:28: Steve Young, Managing Director, Manna Tree – Young discussed his long career in the food industry, including his work with General Mills where he helped shepherd the acquisition of Annie's, why he believes that during a time of uncertainty “investors are not going to invest in the top line at the sake of the bottom line” and whether the era of billion-dollar food brands might be coming to an end. He also discussed the tailwind for local and artisanal brands, the duality of creating highly nutritious and affordable products and how vertically integrated companies factor into Manna Tree's investment thesis. Brands in this episode: Health-Ade, The New Primal, Urban Remedy, Vital Farms, Gotham Greens, Verde Farms, Good Culture, AriZona, Bellisio Foods, Annie's

About LMRE LMRE is globally recognised for leading the way in Real Estate Tech & Innovation talent management.

Timestamps: [02:20] Fatima: Can you share your journey to this space? My background is in chemical engineering. I started thinking about communities when I was at Stanford Business School, how do they form, what strengthens communities and what keeps communities alive? When I moved to LA, I lived in an apartment building with hundreds of people and I started an experiment where we put a QR code in the elevator, from there we started looking at traditional property management platforms and found residents weren't very happy with them. The name Sugar came from the cup of sugar from your neighbour. [04:20] Nobu: Can you tell us about your journey to the VC space? My co-founder and I were at college together but we went on very different paths. In 2019, I had an idea about raising capital from real estate developers and other entities with an interest in real estate and investing the capital in promising real estate technology startups. We left our previous jobs and started Agya Ventures. Our LPs are real estate developers, construction companies and other entities that are interested in real estate and construction innovation. [05:40] Nobu: What do you call “early stage” and how much capital do you look to put in? Seed is our sweet spot but we invest pre-seed. $500,000 to $1 million. [07:40] Fatima: Can you talk a bit more about how you can strengthen community resident spaces and how did you go about your raise with Nobu? Building Community in Residential Spaces: The largest expense for building managers and owners is apartment turnover. Gen Z, who will represent over 40% of the workforce by 2024, most of them will be renters versus home buyers. Community is not a nice to have or luxury, it's a necessity. Raising with Nobu: Nobu understood the vision and the importance of community from the early days. When we dove into the nuances of the actual opportunity and what things are going to look like moving forward, they continued to resonate. [09:30] Fatima: Where is Sugar based? We are alive in properties in different regions across the country, our largest presence is in LA but we live in properties in Florida, North Carolina and New York. What makes an ideal Sugar property and profile - 30 or more units and we have seen a lot of engagement in senior living properties so our ideas about demographics are changing. Community resonates with people of different ages and geographic regions. [12:40] Nobu: What change have you seen pre and post-COVID? Have you been investing at the same rate? How many more investments are you looking to secure by the end of this year? What changes have you seen pre- and post-COVID? The need for community has been direr and has been more pronounced with COVID. Some people were working remotely before COVID and now hybrid work is an integral part of how employers are thinking about their workforce. Our fund started investing post-COVID and one of the things that emerged with COVID were a lot of amazing startup ideas. Have you been investing at the same rate? 2021 was a booming year for VC and many startups emerged. There has been a change since then because of inflations. Some of the best companies come out of these uncertain times. [16:20] Nobu: Do you think valuations will go slightly down or be more slightly realistic? We are already seeing late-stage correction that's in response to a public market correction and we're seeing mid-stage valuation correction in response to the late-stage correction. [16:50] Fatima: How have the last nine months been since securing your investor? Over the last year, we've invested heavily in the product which has led to greater efficiency within sales and marketing. If we continue building a product that customers love, continue listening to the product feedback, and continue solving this large and growing problem then we can build a company that is not only relevant right now, but sustainable over the long run. [19:15] Nobu: You help businesses expand out to Japan, how do you go about it? We invest in US-based technology companies and one of the things we do bring to the table for founders is an expansion to Japan. We also work with companies that are not necessarily portfolio. [22:20] The ‘LMRE' part, Louisa asks the guests to talk about; L – Touch on the main lessons you have learnt throughout your career. Nobu: There is a risk in not taking a risk. M - Please give a mention to anyone / product / service. Nobu: Kunal, Aaron, Elian, my wife, Megan and my daughter, Ruth. R – What has been the most rewarding aspect of working in PropTech? Fatima: It's a very relationship-driven industry. E - What are you excited about in the future of PropTech? Fatima: There's so much opportunity in this space.

Companies Mentioned: CRETech New York Conference CRETech New York Website Fifth Wall Icon Sealed Juno CRETech Climate Tech Copenhagen Equity Residential Hudson Pacific Properties Ivanhoe Cambridge Kimco Turn Tide Shout Outs: Michael Beckerman Scottie Lee Aloft Swift Connect Building Engines Key Insights From This Episode: We invest in companies where we think that we can be a customer or we can be a channel to our clients, and sell their products through that channel. - Raj Technology was definitely impacting and influencing, from a disruptive or an enabling perspective. - Raj But at the same time the challenges around, climate tech specifically around decarbonizing the built world was also proven to be extremely challenging as well. The muscle groups that these corporates need in order to engage technology, and decarbonization, require different approach. - Brad And I think what makes this sort of green wave a lot different than the ones we've seen in the past is that in addition to sort of this government mandated demand, there is a real impetus and a real interest from corporates to be a part of the solution. - Brad I think the two things that stuck out for me firstly, was the number of attendees from the regular real estate world, as opposed to the technology PropTech world. So, there were a huge number of people there who were genuinely curious to understand how technology could have an impact on their business. - Raj I think change is driven by people, The whole world is waking up, why we need to be more carbon neutral, how we need to sort of control increase in temperature. What can we do as individuals to make the world a better place. And I think that's driving the investors, the occupiers to make different decisions. - Sharad I think buildings are will become computers eventually, and computers need an operating system. - Sharad I think for a lot of corporates who expecting the world to just go back to normal, post pandemic, it's just not going to happen. And having a very comprehensive digital strategy is likely going to be your best way to navigate the path forward. - Brad Keywords: funding, innovation, sustainability, collaboration, acquisition, smart buildings, COP26 About Our Guests: Brad Greiwe, Co-Founder & Managing Partner at Fifth Wall https://www.linkedin.com/in/brad-greiwe-96022a38/ Brad Greiwe is a co-founder and Managing Partner at Fifth Wall, where he guides the firm's strategic vision.
