Skild is thrilled to announce that the 2021 Grow-NY challenge has revealed its winners.

And the top prize goes to Every Body Eat, which markets and sells delicious food that’s free from the most common 14 allergens, corn, and sugar so that people can enjoy it, together, regardless of dietary restrictions or preferences.

Other winners include Ascribe Bioscience and Neupeak Robotics, both of which took home $500,000 prizes. In addition, there were four $250,000 winners: DraughtLab, EmGenisys, Nordetect, and WeRadiate.

More than 1,300 people registered for the third annual Grow-NY challenge, an unprecedented food and agriculture business competition that identifies, supports, and funds the top food, beverage, and agriculture innovations across the globe. The competition includes a $1 million top prize, mentorship, training, business development support, and tax incentives.
