Innovation Campus Food

Innovation along the food value chain.

In winter 2022, the Innovation Campus Food will launch our accelerator program for food startups!

The Innovation Campus Food is the innovation platform for the food industry. Innovative start-ups and established companies come together to accelerate much-needed industry and business change.

Durch die Zusammenarbeit mit Startups können neue Technologien, innovative Geschäftsmodelle und zukünftige Märkte in Partnerschaft erprobt und zur strategischen Unternehmensentwicklung umgesetzt werden.
‍
Entlang der Food Value Chain stehen etablierte Unternehmen der Lebensmittelindustrie vor enormen Herausforderungen: von geänderten Kundennachfragen und neuen, regulatorischen Anforderungen bis zu Folgen des Klimawandels und anfälligen Lieferketten.

The goal of the program is to accelerate startups and established companies. The B2B co-creation process thereby combines the innovative power of the startups with the experience and implementation strength of the companies.
