agROBOfood Network

92 partners

27 solutions funded

Started as an EU funded project, agROBOfood brings together stakeholders from the entire agri-food community to address the challenges in agriculture through the uptake of agri-food robotics. agROBOfood network is an ecosystem comprising highly specialized Digital Innovation Hubs (DIHs) and business companies (SMEs, Start-ups, LSE) who share knowledge about technology and market developments related to agri-food robotics and can be approached on local one-stop-shop, regional and European level.

agROBOfood’s mission and vision:

  • Support DIHs and businesses in promoting development and integration of agri-food robotic solutions.
  • Steering sustainable agriculture
  • Acting as reference point in the European agri-food robotics innovation ecosystem
