DRG4FOOD: a leading accelerator program

DRG4FOOD (1 December 2022 - 30 November 2025) is an EU project about achieving trust in a data-driven food system by implementing Digital Responsibility Goals (DRGs) for the food sector.

DRG4FOOD is a leading accelerator program designed for researchers, startups, and SMEs in the agri-food tech sector. The program is dedicated to piloting innovative trustworthy by default solutions to boost trust, transparency, and responsibility in the food industry. Our focus is on individualized coaching and mentorship to help our teams grow and scale their impact. With our extensive network of industry experts and access to funding opportunities, we provide the resources and support needed to accelerate the development of sustainable and impactful solutions.

In the next three years, DRG4FOOD will test use cases (i.e., concrete scenarios on how data might be used) in the areas of personalised nutrition and food traceability.

DRG4FOOD will launch two open calls for funding in September 2023 and Spring 2024 for a total of €1.9 million. The funding will be available to research groups, start-ups, SMEs and innovators who are interested in implementing dedicated tools and applications regarding the DRGs while receiving training and support to scale them up.
