Culterra Capital

What Culterra Capital does

Culterra Capital is a privately held boutique advisory firm founded in 2020 and headquartered in New York, focused exclusively on tech-driven innovation across the food supply chain. The firm is led by two partners, Brita Rosenheim and Seana Day, each with 20+ years of investment, M&A, and strategy experience in the food, ag, and technology verticals. Both partners also serve as Venture Partners at Better Food Ventures, an early-stage food and ag tech investor, which informs deal sourcing and industry positioning. The firm serves four primary customer segments: Food & AgTech companies, investors and private equity, corporate executives at food and ag incumbents, and entrepreneurs and startups in the food system technology ecosystem.

The firm's core offerings are buy-side M&A advisory, sell-side M&A advisory, strategic advisory, and investment consulting services. Its intellectual property consists of proprietary industry landscape maps — including the FarmTech Landscape (2020), Food Tech Landscape (2020), Food Supply Chain Tech Landscape (2021), and Restaurant Tech Ecosystem — that track hundreds of companies across the food supply chain. These maps, alongside the Food Tech State-of-the-Industry Report, are used globally by the food and ag industry and function as the firm's primary content marketing and lead generation engine.

Culterra Capital operates a sales-led, relationship-based go-to-market model, with both partners directly engaging corporate executives, investors, and entrepreneurs. The firm distributes thought leadership through industry reports, conference speaking engagements (World Agri-Tech Summit, Smart Kitchen Summit, PrecisionAg Vision Conference, Organic Grower Summit), podcast appearances, LinkedIn and Twitter presence, and earned media coverage including a 2021 Business Insider recognition. Revenue mechanics follow standard professional services advisory fee structures, though specific pricing is not publicly disclosed. As a two-person partnership with no institutional backing and no public listing, the firm's scale is intentionally constrained by the bandwidth of its partners.
