About Denise Ilogu
Denise is a chemist with a passion for entrepreneurship and transforming new ideas into something practical with an impact.
After finishing her Master’s in Chemistry at TUM, where she has specialized in technical and food chemistry, she joined the startup circular grain as co-founder.
