These innovators become part of our network of scaleups, all focused on tackling key challenges in #SustainableAgriculture and #FoodProduction. 🌟 The successful startups were chosen for their potential to scale solutions that address the long-term sustainability of food and agriculture in Europe, faced with global challenges such as the need to secure food self-sufficiency and reduce net emissions by 90% by 2040. 🌱 The personalised approach of the EIT Food RisingFoodStars programme is key to initiating transformative change within #FoodSystems, unlocking commercial opportunities, and facilitating rapid, sustainable growth for startups.
