Compocity, the composting system for companies, on the threshold of international market entry

After almost one and a half years of product development and a pilot phase, CompoBot, a community composting solution, was launched by the Compocity team at the Planet Budapest exhibition last September. This domestic debut was followed by an international product showcase and market research tour, with prominent stops including the Web Summit in Lisbon last November, one of the EU’s largest innovation exhibitions, where it was awarded the prestigious title of “impact startup” and was featured by the EIB as one of five companies on Twitter, with its one-minute introduction receiving 99,000 views in one day.

This was followed by the CES tech conference in Las Vegas, where they were highlighted as one of the top 5 “food-tech” solutions among the startups featured at the event. After almost three weeks of partnership building in California, they have recently returned from a Middle East trade show, which was the final element of their innovation mapping before going into mass production, to get a clearer picture from their existing customers’ representatives, both at the decision and employee community level, of how to build their value proposition and what additional development they need to focus on.

In the second half of 2024, international test services will be launched. These will soon be strengthened into stable representations through a collaboration in which employee activity and commitment to sustainability will be aligned with corporate and individual steps in the same direction. Food is a resource. We use it wastefully. The preservation of this process at the end of a well-chosen moment in the cycle is an opportunity with which we can now create value, integrated in an urban environment.
