Why we research

At Wadudu we believe in Open Innovation. Research simply gets this sector further. Because of Universities, other breeding facilities and motivated entrepreneurs we have grown a lot in recent years. Now we are facing the future; more research is needed! We will continue to help this sector grow, producing more results benefiting the sector.

What we research

At Wadudu we have a broad scale of projects. Together with our partners we research insects themselves, insects for poultry feed, automatisation as well as the housing of the insect and how to reproduce them in the most efficient way. Our partners enable us to innovate in an open source style, for we are stronger together. Want to contribute to Open Innovation? Don’t hesitate to contact us!
