After training as a lawyer with degrees in Law and Human Rights from Leeds and Queen Mary universities, Jamie Crummie made an unexpected pivot that would reshape how millions of people think about food. Working in the events industry in Australia, he witnessed the scale of food waste firsthand and couldn't look away. That moment of conscious awareness sparked the creation of Too Good To Go, transforming a personal frustration into a global solution that now saves nearly three meals every second from going to waste.

As co-founder of what has become the world's largest marketplace for surplus food, Jamie has built a platform that connects users with restaurants, cafés and retailers offering unsold meals at reduced prices. The app now operates across 17 countries with over 90 million registered users and 150,000 active food businesses participating. Together, they have collectively rescued more than 350 million meals, a figure that continues to climb rapidly. The pace of growth tells its own story: whilst it took six years to save the first 100 million meals, the next 100 million took less than 18 months. Jamie's leadership has earned him recognition as an Obama Leader in 2023, Sustainability Entrepreneur of the Year at the Great British Entrepreneur Awards in 2022, and features in both Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe and their 50 Next list of Trailblazing Activists. His work demonstrates that purpose and profit can align powerfully when tackling complex environmental challenges, particularly during difficult periods such as the COVID-19 pandemic, which forced rapid innovation including the development of Too Good To Go Parcels to work with manufacturers further down the supply chain.

Jamie speaks at events worldwide about building businesses with genuine social and environmental impact at their core. His sessions equip organisations with practical strategies for embedding sustainability into operations, mobilising communities around climate action, and creating commercial models that address real-world problems. Audiences leave with actionable insights drawn from his experience scaling a B Corp that has proven impact and growth are not mutually exclusive. Whilst Jamie acknowledges his ultimate ambition to end food waste may not be achieved in his lifetime, it remains the driving force behind every decision he makes, inspiring others to think bigger about their own potential to create lasting change.
