The EIT food wants to make our food future-proof by involving more the consumers in the innovation process and consequently increasing the consumers trust in new food products. It also wants to make our food cycle more sustainable and healthy. Therefore it wants to achieve a reduction of the food related GHG emissions by 40% by 2030. To reach these objectives they have set up 6 types of programmes:
The EIT publishes calls for proposals for these different programmes. You can find out the opportunities and latest news at the webpage of the innovation community
The EIT works through five regional EIT food hubs with the HQ based in Leuven. Non-members can also take part in most projects so it is not a closed community. You can contact the HQ by mail: info@eitfood.eu
Finally you can contact the NCP for Food, pascal.verheye@vlaio.be

The Stargate project obtained funding under the special Green Deal call of Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic of “green ports and airports”. It received the maximum score of the evaluators and was selected out of more than 40 projects. Stargate’s purpose is to prove that sustainable aviation is possible and happening. It focuses on the further decarbonization of the aviation industry, the improvement of local environmental quality and the stimulation of the modal split. Together with a consortium of 21 European partners with a diverse and rich expertise (airports, community partners, knowledge institutions, consultants, local governments, …), Brussels Airports takes the lead as lighthouse airport to develop and implement innovative solutions. Results that prove successful can be deployed at the fellow airports (Toulouse, Budapest, Athens). Over the course of the coming five years, the consortium will exchange knowledge to investigate and realize more than 30 concrete projects.
