In this episode of the Investment Climate Podcast, host Alex Shandrovsky interviews Bodil Sidén, General Partner at Kost Capital, a Copenhagen-based early-stage venture fund and food tech studio. They discuss Kost Capital's strategy of focusing on high-margin B2B inputs (ingredients and enabling tech) as a "Trojan Horse" for the existing food industry, rather than low-margin B2C outputs. Bodil also shares insights on their unique venture studio model and their approach to pre-seed checks and co-leading deals alongside generalist VCs.

Key takeaways include the importance of customer stalking over "dusty IP" for food tech founders, the redefinition of the VC "Power Law" for FoodTech, and the advantages of having a smaller fund size in the food space. The episode provides valuable insights for founders looking to get funded in 2026 and succeed in the climate tech industry.
