The EU insect farming market is growing fast — expected to reach 235,000 tonnes/year by 2026.
But what if we didn’t just grow insects for food…
What if we used them to grow jobs, skills and second chances?
That’s exactly what Social Bugs is doing.
We’re:
🔧 Training 120+ vulnerable people in insect rearing
💼 Upskilling 36 social entrepreneurs to build insect-based businesses
🏗️ Setting up 3 demo farms (yes, including one inside a youth prison!)
🤝 Connecting entrepreneurs, researchers, educators and social workers in a new innovation ecosystem
This is the green economy with a social heart.
