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.

Biotechnology, Agri-Inputs and Biosecurity: Why the Future of Farming Needs a Wider Conversation in Sofia
Agriculture is undergoing a quiet transformation. Genomic tools, precision biological solutions, and new generations of crop protection and plant nutrition products are changing what is possible in the field and along the whole food chain. At the same time, the same advances raise questions that the sector is only beginning to ask. Who controls the genetic resources and seeds we depend on? How do we manage biosecurity when biological agents and genomic technologies can be used for more than...

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. Two Live Examples Worth Studying Safe-Agri, one of AgriVentures' active projects, is reinforcing the security assessment...

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. If you...

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?" This time it's about Understanding biomass flows in Europe (HORIZON-CL6-2026-01-CIRCBIO-05), a Horizon Europe call with a total budget of €6,000,000 that opened on 17 April 2026 and closes on 17 September 2026.
