Enabling Social Innovation Entrepreneurship in Agri-food through Digital Transition
The agri-food sector is subject to strong external pressures, such as a rising demand for food world-wide, competition for land, the globalisation of trade, threats from animal/plant diseases, environmental changes or public health considerations.
To survive and thrive, the European agri-food industry must become more efficient and sustainable and take advantage of the opportunities offered by new technological developments. Therefore, the general objective of the ENACT project is to promote digital transition and entrepreneurship among the social economy actors in the agri-food value chain.
To do so, it will support transnational cooperation in capacity raising and developing responses to drive the transformation of the European food system into a more sustainable and regenerative system, contributing to more resilient, just, and solidary territories.
Project funded by the European Commission under the Single Market Programme run by the European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency (EISMEA).
