The aim of this workshop was to provide guidance on effectively utilizing the Knowledge Incubator platform, including uploading new innovations as well as improving the ones that were already uploaded. The overarching goal was to populate the tool and thereby facilitate the accessibility of the public research results funded by the ERA-NET initiative to SMEs interested in collaborating with agricultural and environmental researchers to develop commercial products in the agricultural and food sectors.
Knowledge Incubator Events
ICT-AGRI-FOOD is implementing a Knowledge Incubator for researchers, SMEs and start-ups funded within ICT-AGRI-FOOD calls, in order to improve knowledge management and facilitate the interaction of research with relevant stakeholders. The ICT-AGRI-FOOD Knowledge Incubator is a networking space based on an online tool. The online tool is organised as a database of innovations developed by the ICT-AGRI-FOOD community. Users of the Knowledge Incubator are invited to share innovations, describing how digital technologies can contribute to solving a specific problem in the agri-food-system. The final objective is to increase its visibility and impact in the ICT-AGRI-FOOD community sharing experiences and data with other EU projects, catalogues and platforms.
