The Long Game: Why Food Systems Need Patient Capital
Peter Bodenheimer, Venture Partner at PeakBridge, joins us to unpack the realities of investing in food tech—from early-stage innovation to growth-stage execution. Drawing on decades of experience across startups, accelerators, and venture capital, he explores what makes food fundamentally different from other investment categories—and why it demands a longer, more strategic view.
We talk about the hidden risks of inflated valuations, the tension between capital and capacity, and why the most scalable solutions are often the least sexy. Peter also shares how PeakBridge is backing B2B innovations that quietly power the food system—and what it really takes to move from novelty to necessity.This is a conversation about timelines, tradeoffs, and why transforming our food system means playing the long game.
