Pitch
Presentatie
Cycloponics is a startup specialized in the transformation and reconversion of unused urban underground spaces. These urban structures, such as car parks, represent a real untapped potential, and are rehabilitated to house organic food production areas (micro sprouts, mushrooms or endives), or work hubs dedicated to local or sustainable economic actors. Founded in 2012, the startup began its activities in Strasbourg by opening its first space called the "Bunker Comestible". It is now also present in Paris where it operates a production site in the 18th arrondissement, called "La Caverne". In addition to producing healthy, organic and quality food as close as possible to consumers, Cycloponics is committed to a very strong local integration approach by hiring people from disadvantaged neighbourhoods where their spaces are located. In collaboration with these actors, Cycloponics not only harvests food but revamps and monetizes unoccupied places.
