Olfactive Biosolutions: A Conversation with Nils Lommerin

In a recent episode of the Internet of Senses Institute Podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Nils Lommerin, CEO and Co-founder of Olfactive Biosolutions, for a thoughtful and inspiring conversation about food innovation, sensory science, and the growing role of olfaction in the development of medicinal supplements.

Nils places sensory perception and research at the heart of how businesses can remain adaptable in a world of constant change, highlighting why sensory-driven products are gaining significant momentum across industries. During our conversation, he shared insights into his current entrepreneurial work and offered a candid look at what it means to build a company at the intersection of science, creativity, and consumer behavior.

If you’re interested in food innovation, sensory science, or the journey of a multisensory entrepreneur, you can listen to the full conversation below—or wherever you get your podcasts.
