Bio

About	Mohamed founder and CEO of EntomoNutris. I have a background in Marketing and Business Strategy and I am currently pursuing a BBA degree in Business Management at HEC Montreal. Over the past 13 years, I have gained professional experience in various industries such as banking and finance, pharmaceuticals, and the automotive industry, focusing on sales, customer relations, and business development. Along the way, I have also worked on several entrepreneurial projects, and EntomoNutris is the culmination of my efforts. As the strategic and operational manager of EntomoNutris, I have assembled a highly skilled and motivated team of 15 members from diverse backgrounds, including science, finance, engineering, marketing, and business development. My goal is to promote sustainable food production by using insects as a protein source, and my values are centred around innovation, sustainability, and social responsibility. My top accomplishments include successfully launching of EntomoNutris, securing funding, and building strong partnerships with various stakeholders. I am excited to join the SBC community to learn from and collaborate with like-minded individuals and organizations. I believe that together, we can create positive change and contribute to a more sustainable future.
