Faced with the global crisis that the COVID-19 pandemic has generated, Finnova could face new challenges in order to re-boost Agri-food economic sector.

Agritech Startup Europe Acclerathon is an initiative arranged by Finnova, which will work on new approaches and solutions against the problem of COVID-19 and mitigate the massive loss of employment and the cessation of agri-food activity.

Faced with a notable and unpredictable impact, it is necessary to focus efforts on seeking new approaches aimed at creating survival mechanisms for companies in the sector, protecting the most vulnerable segments that work in the field of agri-food. At this juncture, we are committed to the regeneration capacity of the sector and to the innovation of the agents of the entrepreneurial ecosystem to continue advancing towards recovery and development.

Agritech Startup Europe Acclerathon will support and offered:
    • Innovative solutions to common territorial challenges.
    • Networking: developing strategies that allow them to make their idea known to relevant actors of the European institutions.
    • EU financing: inform entrepreneurs, start-ups, SMEs and other end-user and target groups about the financing tools available to the European Union and seek partners to give it a European dimension.
    • Mentoring: organizing information sessions with a group of experts in different fields.
