Our Community

EIT Food leads the world’s largest and most dynamic food innovation community. We create connections right across the food system that stimulate new ideas and invention to drive change: between startups and corporates; between entrepreneurs and investors; between consumers and industry; between research and action; between ideas and reality; between present and future. 

We believe inclusive systems innovation, which enables all people and places to participate and benefit, is essential to a strong and resilient food system that is better for everyone. With teams on the ground across Europe, we strive to bridge the gap between countries and regions with low innovation capacity and those leading the way. And we put consumers at the heart of our work, helping build trust by reconnecting them to the origins of their food, directly involving them in the innovation process, and working with the food sector to increase transparency.
