The Plate

The Plate was established in 2021 by Nadine Erk and Isabell Weiser as a culinary creation platform with its headquarters in Berlin. The goal was to help food creators with engagement strategies, such as building an educational offering or focusing on a specific niche. This advice helps creators improve their content and attract a larger audience. Creators could also build a subscription business on The Plate to receive a reliable monthly income. The Plate obtained $1.3 million in pre-seed funding in September 2021. Village Global, GE Ventures, and a few angel investors joined Atlantic FoodLabs in leading this round. The Plate shut down in February 2023, notwithstanding the original investment. The companys operations came to an end when it went through liquidation. At its height, The Plate had teams in Berlin and Manila and employed about 20 people.
