Abstract: Abstract Food technology (FoodTech) is a branch of food science that deals with the production processes that make foods. AgriTech (AgTech) is the use of technology in agriculture, horticulture, and aquaculture to improve yield, efficiency, and profitability. Agritech can be products, services, or applications derived from agriculture that improve various input/output processes. Investments in FoodTech and AgriTech will continue to increase to help deliver on the promise of healthier, more sustainable food systems and more efficient supply/value chains. Startups challenge incumbent food producers and offer digital solutions or other innovative results. The analysis of the innovative business model of a FoodTech or AgriTech startup is a prerequisite for its appraisal. The evaluation depends on the prioritizing identification of the crucial value drivers.
