Problem
Large volumes of organic waste are disposed of in landfills, generating greenhouse gases, while many communities lack affordable, nutritious food, leading to food insecurity and unsustainable protein sources.
Solution
BioDigital Tech Solutions addresses these challenges by operating a proprietary Black Soldier Fly (BSF) farm that biologically converts organic waste into high‑protein insect feed. The farm is managed through an AI‑enhanced platform that optimizes breeding cycles, feedstock intake, and output quality. Parallel to the farm, the Okumkom mobile app connects surplus food from retailers and producers with consumers seeking discounted, nutritious meals, creating a digital marketplace that reduces waste and improves access to affordable food. By integrating biotechnology with data‑driven software, the company delivers a closed‑loop system that simultaneously lowers waste‑related emissions, generates sustainable protein, and supports climate‑resilient food security. Partnerships with NGOs, government agencies, and agri‑businesses enable scaling of the solution across the UK and into new markets.
Target Audience
Primary customers are NGOs, municipal food‑security programs, and agri‑businesses that need sustainable waste‑to‑protein solutions and digital tools to distribute affordable food to low‑income communities.
