EMPOWERING THE FOOD SUPPLY CHAIN TOGETHER

Do you ever think of all the hands involved in putting food on our tables?

Welcome to FOOD 2030, an open innovation program powered by the PRR Blockchain project. FOOD 2030 brings together industry stakeholders, global startups and innovators to co-create a sustainable food ecosystem – from production to packaging to waste management.

Through fostering collaboration, the synergies created in FOOD 2030 look to solve real supply chain challenges with immediate application; aligned with the EU 2030 goal of a reliable, resilient food market

Our approach is holistic and inclusive. With about 16 million people employed by food supply (just in the European Union), we are aware of the many exchanges that can be supported by technological innovation.

We are looking for startups and innovators with solutions that can leave a meaningful impact on the food ecosystem

TRANSPARENCY & TRACEABILITY

From farm to table. Building trust with consumers requires transparency and traceability. We look for technologies that can trace the footprint of any item in the chain, improving information accessibility.

FAIR TRADE & ETHICAL SOURCING

Ethical production starts with the management of resources and ends with the wellbeing of the workforce. Bring up solutions to ensure fairness in product sourcing, exchanges and labour. Let’s highlight sustainable systems!

RESPONSIBLE RESOURCE DEPLOYMENT

Food resources are finite, and essential. We crave solutions to optimise their use and ensure the reduction of wasteful practices. We bet on a consistent evolution to sustainability.

WASTE MANAGEMENT & CIRCULAR PRACTICES

Over 58 million tonnes of food waste is generated in the EU every year. New solutions can reduce the waste of perfectly consumable products. And don’t forget the optimal processing of unusable items!
