As the Biotech4Food project progresses, our agenda will be full of activities and events. That’s why we want to share with you the important dates to keep in mind.
In the coming months, we will be attending events focusing on innovation in the food sector, such as NutrEvent and EIT Next Food Bites 2024. We will also be present at the Clusters Meeting Regions 2024, a conference where we will highlight the value of cooperation between different European regions and clusters, using the example of the I4CE partnership and the resulting Biotech4Food project.
Finally, we, the 26 partners of the consortium, will be able to meet in person for the first time since the beginning of the project. This meeting will take place in Pamplona, Navarra (Spain), where we will organise the second Steering Committee meeting of the year. In Pamplona, our partners will be able to participate in various activities such as the AseBio conference and a visit to the facilities of CNTA and Ingredalia, two of the B4F partners.
