This opportunity is especially relevant for SMEs looking to pioneer sustainable and innovative production methods while forging global partnerships.
What Are Seed Money Projects?
Seed Money Projects foster cooperation between businesses and research institutions. They focus on building networks, creating sustainable production chains, and addressing pressing issues such as climate change, resource efficiency, and food security. Participating businesses gain access to invaluable expertise and opportunities to scale their innovations globally.
Key Application Requirements
To qualify, projects must align with the Knowledge and Innovation Agenda (KIA) on Agriculture, Water, and Food. This ensures alignment with national and global sustainability goals. Proposals should demonstrate potential to revolutionize processes within the sector while fostering international ties.
Deadline and Application Process
Applications for the program close on January 24, 2025. Interested parties can find more details and submit their proposals through the Greenport Duin- en Bollenstreek website. Early submissions are encouraged to ensure ample time for review and refinement.
This initiative represents an essential opportunity for SMEs to drive the future of agrifood and horticulture. By supporting projects that emphasize sustainability, Greenport aims to solidify the Netherlands’ role as a leader in innovative agricultural practices.
