After four years, the Grassroutes Business Challenge is becoming an established event in the calendar. Held at the Royal Agricultural College, Cirencester and sponsored by DHL Supply Chain, it's the only national inter-university competition that is focused on enterprise within the food supply industry - from field to plate, and is designed to attract the very best graduate talent into the Agri-food sector. 
The focus shifted to all things technical a few days later when MorePeople were back in the West Country at Campden BRI where, alongside companies such as M&S, Waitrose and Heinz UK, MorePeople Director Guy Moreton was a career mentor for undergraduates attending the IFST / Camden BRI Career Launchpad. Attended by over 80 food science undergraduates from all over the UK this new event is designed to give undergraduates a real insight into the opportunities that a career in the food sector can open up.
