Bringing together the food industry through innovation and entrepreneurship! ECOTROPHELIA Europe EEIG is a European Economic Interest Grouping that aims to unite stakeholders from different Member States together around a common objective and brings together food industry actors from eight different countries to promote innovation and entrepreneurship in the European food industry through implementing and developing innovative programmes. In particular, the EEIG, with the assistance of its members, aims to:
Promote cooperation and exchanges between SMEs and universities, research institutes, public and private bodies involved in food innovation.
- Define policies, organise the European ECOTROPHELIA Europe competition and promote participation in the Competition and its results.
- Promote excellent education programmes linked to food innovation.
- Increase awareness and spreading information, particularly to students and young entrepreneurs. It is in this context that ECOTROPHELIA carried by the EEIG has become a Food Innovation Laboratory.
