AgTech & FoodTech Delegation 2 to Israel

Important results from the project

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The purpose and goal of the trip was to create networks and conditions for collaborations in food innovations. This was fulfilled when new contacts were created and new collaborations started to be discussed, both within the Swedish delegation and with several Israeli actors from both organizations and companies. In addition, previous contacts and discussions with both companies and organizations were followed up. Contacts have also been conveyed to other Swedish actors via networks.

Expected long term effects

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The result of the participation has meant that both new contact networks have been created and that previous contacts have been followed up, both within the Swedish delegation and with Israeli actors. After the visit to Israel, LU has had follow-up discussions with both Swedish and Israeli actors, as well as mediated contacts further within the network. The outcome was beyond expectations and we now hope to be able to find funding opportunities to start new innovation projects with several of the actors.

Approach and implementation

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The set-up and execution was good as it gave the opportunity to both get an overview of participating actors through presentations and the opportunity to discuss more detailed ideas and the initiation of different types of collaborations.
