SEBP Project at the Final Foodity & DRG4FOOD Conference

Agriventures joined leading innovators and researchers in Brussels for the final conference of the Foodity and DRG4FOOD projects, celebrating responsible digital innovation in the food sector.

During the event, The Good Club, which implements the SEBP project together with Agriventures, pitched its solution for the Start Award Prize in a highly competitive showcase of impactful, data-driven food initiatives.

The SEBP project has been an amazing journey within the Foodity Cascade Funding Programme, offering both teams — Agriventures and The Good Club — the opportunity to connect with inspiring people and experts from diverse domains, including marketing, sustainability, community engagement, and business modeling.

The conference marked the final phase of both Foodity and DRG4FOOD, highlighting the innovations of more than ten funded startups, SMEs, and research teams in food tracking, targeted nutrition, and consumer food choices. Participants also explored the Digital Responsibility Goals (DRGs) — a framework for fostering trust, accountability, and ethical innovation in the digital food ecosystem, with the ambition to set new standards for responsible digital solution development.

A New Door Is Opening for Bulgarian Farmers and Agri-Innovators - And It's Fully Funded
