Networking cocktail FOODINOVA: a national initiative to strengthen the Swedish innovation eco-system for food and territorial development

SWEDEN IS A FRONTRUNNER WHEN IT COMES TO INNOVATION But what does the Swedish innovation eco-system for food, environment and health have to do with you? INVITATION: TASTE, LISTEN & DISCUSS We welcome you to taste the famous finger food à la nordic, while discussing new ideas! As the largest incubator and science park in Sweden within the food sector, and with a cross over to the areas health and environment, Krinova is developing the ability of innovation environments to provide an even better incubation and innovation support to companies within the food supply chain. We Believe in Co We believe in co-doing, co-designing, co-developing and co-effectuating. We believe that together, we can do much more than we could ever do alone. We are looking for partners, strong actors, visionaries and doers that support the growth and competitiveness of companies and organisations in the food value chain that want to strengthen the innovation eco-system with an increased capacity for incubation and innovation. Let’s do some more good, or who knows, maybe even great stuff together! When: Wednesday October 10th, 17:30.

We do so preferably in cross-sectoral co-operations, with other industries and areas of competencies. This effort is in alignment with the Swedish National Food Strategy that also aims to bring actors within the industry together for increased co-operation, growth and innovation. Who we are Krinova Incubator & Science Park is an innovation-driven node for several levels of society.
