Scott Sundvor cofounded Nima when he was 22, motivated by his own experience with ulcerative colitis and food intolerances. That lead to Nima, a portable bluetooth-enabled device that tests foods for allergens before you eat. The company has raised more than $20 million between venture funding and government grants. Its first product tests food for gluten, accurate at 20ppm (the FDA standard for what is considered “gluten-free”). In 2018, it will be released a peanut-testing sensor and plans to add others for testing dairy or soy.
