Hillkoff’s continuous drive to transform agricultural byproducts into high-performance functional innovations has hit another major milestone. We are proud to announce that Coffogenic was officially awarded the JT Award alongside a 30,000 THB cash prize at the TECH PLANTER Thailand 2026 Demo Day, held on July 18 at Chulalongkorn University.
Organized by Leave a Nest Singapore, TECH PLANTER is Asia’s premier deep-tech venture ecosystem platform dedicated to discovering science- and technology-based innovations that solve profound societal challenges. Out of numerous applications from across Thailand, our work in turning the coffee cherry into a science-backed health asset caught the attention of an international judging panel comprising industry leaders, global investors, and corporate partners like Japan Tobacco Inc. (JT).
Validating the Power of Sustainable Innovation
Winning the JT Award reinforces Coffogenic’s mission to merge sustainable agriculture with cutting-edge biotechnology. By capturing valuable bioactive chlorogenic acids from the raw coffee plant—compounds typically lost during conventional processing—we are redefining how agricultural value chains operate.
This recognition underscores our commitment to developing functional wellness solutions that support metabolic health while championing a zero-waste, circular bioeconomy framework.
We extend our sincere gratitude to Leave a Nest, the distinguished judges, and Japan Tobacco for recognizing the potential of our vision. As we continue to scale our impact from Thailand to the global stage, we remain dedicated to turning agricultural tradition into advanced, science-driven health innovations.
