Kitchology, Online Home for 160 Million Americans with Special Dietary Needs, Moves to Maven
Kitchology, one of the internet’s prime food news and recipe communities featuring hyper personalized diets such
as vegan, gluten-free and food allergy aware content, has moved to the new digital media network Maven (ticker symbol MVEN).
“Kitchology is thrilled to be a part of the Maven community. It is a unique melting pot of ideas and topics that impact the
everyday and the everyone,” said Kitchology Founder Iris Sherman. “The rich voices of award-winning journalists, best-selling
authors, analysts and emerging bloggers build on one another like nowhere else.”
Sherman, a mother of children with severe food allergies, was inspired to create a recipe book the whole family could enjoy. In
her research, she discovered that 160 million Americans live with special dietary requirements and she determined they needed their
own community of support, news and recipes.
A patent-pending digital wellness platform, Kitchology aims to improve meal and snack time for people with special dietary needs
by providing the tools to create safe, delicious recipes everyone can enjoy.
“The passion that Iris and her Kitchology team bring to their channel is exactly what we’re looking for as we build the Maven
coalition,” said Maven CEO James Heckman. “With their expertise and our tools to help them build community, we believe their large
and diverse audience will grow ever more engaged.”
Dozens of award-winning journalists, best-selling authors, top analysts, important causes and foundations are bringing their
organizations to Maven’s coalition of elite content channels.
Maven is an expert-driven, group media network, whose innovative platform serves, by invitation-only, a coalition of
professional, independent channel partners. By providing broader distribution, greater community engagement and efficient
advertising and membership programs, Maven enables partners to focus on the key drivers of their business: creating, informing,
sharing, discovering, leading and interacting with the communities and constituencies they serve.
Based in Seattle, Maven is publicly traded under the ticker symbol MVEN. The executive team and operational board members include digital media pioneers James Heckman, Ross
Levinsohn and Josh Jacobs and technology innovators Bill Sornsin and Ben Joldersma. For more insight, head to themaven.net.
