Agriventures Showcases SEBP Project at Final FOODITY & DRG4FOOD Conference in Brussels


After nearly two and a half years of dedicated research, collaboration, and innovation, Agriventures is proud to announce its participation in the final FOODITY & DRG4FOOD conference, taking place in Brussels on 22–23 October 2025. Together with our SEBP project and in collaboration with the Good Club, we will join leading voices across Europe’s food system to showcase our results and contribute to shaping the future of food and digital innovation.
This joint conference marks the culmination of two ambitious initiatives — FOODITY and DRG4FOOD — which have worked in parallel to develop cutting-edge digital solutions for food and nutrition. Both projects share a common vision: creating a dynamic and trustworthy ecosystem of digital tools that respect citizens’ rights to data sovereignty while driving innovation across the agri-food sector.
At the event, participants will have the chance to explore over 10 innovative solutions developed through the FOODITY and DRG4FOOD open calls, engage in pitch sessions, panel discussions, and exhibitions, and connect with a wide network of innovators, entrepreneurs, investors, researchers, and policymakers.
For Agriventures, the SEBP project has been a cornerstone in exploring how digital technologies can enhance transparency, empower citizens, and strengthen sustainability in the food system. Working alongside the Good Club, we have focused on bridging innovation with practical solutions that address both industry needs and societal expectations.

The final conference in Brussels will not only showcase the tangible results of SEBP and its sister projects but also provide a space for dialogue on the future of food and technology in Europe. Through discussions on data, innovation, and digital rights, we aim to highlight how collaborative approaches can build healthier, more transparent, and more sustainable food systems.
We look forward to sharing the outcomes of our journey, presenting our solutions to a wider audience, and fostering new collaborations that will carry this work forward well beyond the project’s conclusion.

Where Agrifood Biotech and Research Funding Is Actually Going in 2026
Basic research doesn't fund itself, and in agrifood, the gap between a promising lab result and a fundable project often comes down to knowing which of a dozen overlapping EU programmes to approach first. Food safety science, biotech platforms, and multi-country research consortia each follow their own funding logic, and 2026 has brought fresh calls across all three.

A New Door Is Opening for Bulgarian Farmers and Agri-Innovators - And It's Fully Funded
For years, the biggest barrier between Bulgarian agriculture and Europe's most advanced farms hasn't been ambition. It's been access — to the right rooms, the right people, and the budget to get there. AgriVentures' new Missions program was built to remove exactly that barrier, and it does it in a way few programs in the region ever have: by covering the full cost of getting Bulgarian farmers, entrepreneurs, scientists, and companies in front of Europe's leading agri-food innovators.

Understanding Biomass Flows in Europe: A €6M Horizon Europe Call Agrifood Founders Shouldn't Miss
A question we've been getting a lot lately, including from our own LinkedIn community, is some version of: "Can my startup actually apply for this, and how?"
