Divyansh Ojha, HBA ’20, founder of FoodFund, an entrepreneurial venture he grew while a student at Ivey, has been named to London Inc. Magazine’s 2020 20 Under 40 list.
The annual list, presented by London Inc. in partnership with the Twenty Under Forty Foundation, celebrates outstanding young professionals in London, Ont. The recipients were profiled in a special supplement in the December 2020 edition of London Inc. released today. In his profile, Ojha discusses what prompted him to start a business and his biggest professional achievement, and gave advice for aspiring entrepreneurs. Through FoodFund, Ojha strives to make food more affordable by selling imperfect produce at a discount.
Ojha is no stranger to awards. In the summer of 2019, he placed first in the TELUS Pitch 2019 competition and received a $100,000-cash prize to help build FoodFund.
We profiled Ojha and FoodFund in the early years of the venture. Read about how it got started.
The difference we’ve made in the lives of everyday Canadians dwarfs the revenue we’ve generated or the awards and recognition we’ve received. For many, we’ve made a basic human need truly accessible.”
