About the Projects
DRG4FOOD

In the past three years, DRG4FOOD tested use cases through the launch of 2 open calls for a total of 1.9 million in funding in the areas of targeted nutrition, food traceability and consumers’ food choices. The funding has been directed to research groups, start-ups, SMEs, and innovators interested in implementing dedicated tools and applications that address the Digital Responsibility Goals.
