Matthijs Germs

Outgoing Curator at the Global Shapers Amsterdam Hub.

Founder of Verdante: We believe the way we eat — and the policies that shape it — are central to building a just and livable future.

Verdante is a mission-driven EU policy advisory practice, working at the intersection of EU agriculture and food policy, plant-based foods, and sustainable proteins.

We support front-running NGOs, progressive food companies, and coalitions that are actively involved in transforming Europe’s food system.

From strategy development, engaging decisionmakers and achieving results.
