803 Mike Glick: CEO of NIMA Partners


Listen Later

On today’s episode, we welcome Mike Glick, CEO of NIMA Partners — the company behind the next-generation portable gluten sensor designed to deliver real-time food testing with 99% accuracy across major gluten sources. With growing demand for food transparency and consumer diagnostics, NIMA is helping reshape how people with celiac disease and gluten sensitivity confidently navigate what they eat.

Mike’s journey to leading NIMA Partners has been rooted in a career focused on improving nutrition, safety, and health outcomes. Prior to joining NIMA, he led and scaled multiple food allergy and nutrition startups including Goode Health, Else Nutrition, and SpoonfulOne — the latter acquired by Nestlé. Earlier in his career, Mike spent over a decade at Abbott and began professionally in supply chain consulting after studying Business and Engineering at the University of Illinois and earning his MBA from Wake Forest University. Stepping into NIMA in 2025, he has been instrumental in relaunching the business at a moment when consumer trust and verification in food have never been more important.
In this episode, Mike shares why he transitioned from packaged foods to food-tech diagnostics, the powerful consumer problem NIMA’s sensor is solving, and what has changed in gluten testing since the company first launched. We discuss the prevalence of celiac disease, how people manage risk today, and the emotional impact of having real-time answers about what’s on your plate. Mike also talks about leadership, measuring success, recognizing the right moment to move forward, and why standing still is rarely an option. A thoughtful conversation for founders, operators, health innovators, and anyone interested in the future of transparency in the food system.
