Nutritio Botanica is an independent, long-term project at the intersection of botany, nutrition, and data analysis.
It explores human diet not through nutrients or trends, but through the plants themselves — their diversity, relationships, and patterns of use.

Sponsorship helps cover the ongoing costs of maintaining and extending the project and enables selected future developments.

Two forms of sponsorship are possible: commercial and ideational.

Commercial sponsorship

Commercial sponsors support Nutritio Botanica financially in exchange for clearly defined visibility — without influence on content, data, or interpretation.

What commercial sponsors gain

Sponsoring Nutritio Botanica is not about advertising a product.
It is about associating with a way of thinking and a positive attitude towards plant-based food.

Sponsors are visible to an audience that is:

deeply interested in food and nutrition
attentive to plants as biological systems, not mere commodities
scientifically curious and analytically minded
sceptical of marketing claims, but open to evidence and structure

In this context, sponsorship signals:

intellectual openness
respect for complexity
long-term thinking in food systems
alignment with plant-based perspectives — without ideology

Nutritio Botanica offers a calm, credible environment in which sponsors can cultivate a sympathetic, trust-based image among a highly relevant audience.

Exclusive sponsorship of a clearly delimited feature or extension(e.g. a new visualization, an additional language version, or a specific analytical module)
A short, factual sponsor profile on the sponsors page

Principal sponsorship is limited in number to preserve clarity and independence.

Editorial independence

Commercial sponsorship provides visibility, not influence.Sponsors do not shape data collection, analysis, interpretation, or conclusions.

‍

Ideational sponsorship

Ideational sponsors support Nutritio Botanica in spirit rather than financially.

This form of sponsorship is intended for:

scientific or science-adjacent institutions
botanical societies and gardens
educational initiatives
non-profit organizations or individuals

Ideational sponsors express that they consider the project meaningful, well-founded, and worth supporting in principle.

What ideational sponsorship involves

Ideational Sponsor

No financial contribution is required.

Transparency and fit

Nutritio Botanica is intentionally selective about sponsorship.
Not every form of visibility is a good fit – and not every potential sponsor will feel at home here.

The aim is alignment, not maximisation.
