KICK-OFF PROJECT MEETING

The online Kick-off project meeting of the call on “Call for transnational, collaborative, inter-/transdisciplinary research projects on ICT-enable AGRI-FOOD systems” will be organised on 17 & 18 March 2021.

The main purpose of the meeting is to learn about the selected projects and discuss the state of the art in the field of ICT-enabled agri-food systems. The Kick-off event will bring project leaders and involved researchers, ICT-AGRI-FOOD consortium members, funders and other stakeholders from industry, academia and policy-making organisations in the agri-food sector together.

The Kick-off Project meeting is a unique opportunity for the partners of ICT-AGRI-FOOD researchers, stakeholders, funders and the public to discuss the projects’ main fields of work. We would very much appreciate your active participation in this event.
