The first meeting between Informest and the Agrifood & Bioeconomy Foundation FVG (FAB FVG) to define the methods for mapping biotechnologies applicable to the agri-food sector in the cross-border area.
The activity, part of the BioTech2Agri project funded by the Italy-Slovenia Program 2021-2027, is essential to prepare the support that will be offered to companies in 2025. The project aims to provide companies with a package of services aimed at assessing the technical feasibility and economic sustainability of development paths based on the use of biotechnologies in various sectors (food, livestock, nutraceutical, cosmetic, etc.).
In addition, a series of cross-border events will be organized to involve local actors and delve into highly topical issues, such as biotechnologies, a field rich in potential that is still little explored.
BioTech2Agri, launched in April 2024, is a project funded by the Italy-Slovenia Program 2021-2027 and involves, in addition to Informest and FAB FVG, also the Regional Development Agency ROD, Venetian Cluster, ZRS – Research Center Koper, and RIMORSKI TEHNOLOŠKI PARK D.O.O.

The project aims to enhance European competitiveness by fostering innovation in the agri-food sector. We will add value to Italian-Slovenian agri-food chains through biotechnological solutions, promoting cross-border collaboration between public and private sectors. This initiative seeks to create synergies and ensure sustainable development during and beyond the project’s duration, focusing on medium and long-term goals.
