In food production, its traceability and innovation, bold, new encounters and radical ideas are needed to renew food and the value chain. How do we create links between food system thinking and concrete products and services that make a difference? How do we produce healthier food in a more sustainable way? How do we open silos and create a genuine desire to create bigger solutions and effectively manage the transformation with data? Would “FOOD TINDER” be an option? Listen to an episode that will make you think about new opportunities in the food industry.
