Transparent Food Chains

This summer school responds to the need of creating more transparent food chains. It offers a unique 20 day program with asynchronous material in preparation to an intense one week bootcamp, that will allow students to experience creative thinking, innovation and entrepreneurship, together with industry partners and mentors, with the final objective of translating their findings into real-world business solutions. The bootcamp training will be delivered through a mix of guest lecturers from industry (Hitachi, Siemens, John Deere, Agricolus, Zimt technologies, Ingredia, Barilla), exposing participants to blockchain, digital ledger technology, IoT, sensors, and their current utilization. Teams will work with mentors to put into practice the ideas in a business context.
