Career
[edit]In 2014, Langwallner co-founded NamZ[3][4] – a bio-science innovation incubator and predecessor to WhatIF Foods.
The dehydration technology innovated by Langwallner and Peter Cheetham at NamZ allowed the company to develop multi-colored noodles[5] which use regenerative crops like the Bambara groundnut.[6][7][8]
Langwallner founded WhaIF Foods, a consumer-facing brand, in 2020 to address what he calls the dysfunctional state of the food industry, which creates calorie-rich, nutrient poor foods in environmentally unsustainable ways, by adopting the technologies developed at NamZ.
