The overall aim of AgTech7 is to significantly and practically enhance the knowledge of European HEIs’/Research Institutes’ students and ‘in-house’ incubator managers, agribusiness entrepreneurs and business angels on a wide set of agri-tech disruptive farm-to-fork applications.

AgTech7’s objectives are the following:

– To collaboratively design and frequently update a curriculum consisting of the following initially defined thematic topics:

1: Food value chain and the food system

2: IoT and Earth Observation for growing farm yield and improving resource efficiency

3: Data Analytics in Farm Management Information Systems

4: Artificial Intelligence in supply chain optimisation

5: Financial innovation for enhanced agri-food availability in funding and insurance

6: Lean startup for agri-tech ventures

7: Neuro-science marketing techniques for shifting diets and personalized branding

– To put to test the above curriculum with custom deployment means, tailored to the specific needs
and learning habits of the different target-groups (i.e. classroom-style, workshop, round-table
discussions, fire-chats, gamification, MOOC-style learning)

– To facilitate digital disruption in the agribusiness domain based on a whole spectrum of
contemporary farm-to-fork agri-tech concepts, thus, inspiring modernisation of participating HEIs’
curricula, incubators’ startup services, commercial business models and early-stage investing
practices within and beyond AgTech7 participants.

– To enhance entrepreneurial skills of higher education students, in-house incubator managers,
teaching staff and agri-food company staff, by co-creating the curriculum and testing it in
interdisciplinary audiences.

– To enable the exchange, flow and co-creation of knowledge, by offering easy-to-grasp, practical
examples and cases of agri-tech deployments from the whole farm-to-fork spectrum.
