INAPRO showcased at the Global Food Innovation Summit in Milan

Monday May 15, 2017

Last week the INAPRO project was showcased during the Global Food Innovation Summit that took place in Milan. Following the successful experience of the 2015 Universal Exposition whose main theme was food security and sustainability, the city continues to be at the centre of the discourse about food innovation. The event gathered many visitors and some high level speakers such as Barack Obama, former President of the United States, several European Commissioners such as Phil Hogan and Karmenu Vella, some Members of the European Parliament and many stakeholders interested in taking part in the debate about food innovation and sustainability.

INAPRO’s partner Eurovix attended the conference and showcased the 3D model of the INAPRO system and the small model of the INAPRO urban demonstration object designed by Wenke Förster. Moreover, on the 9^th of May Luisa Bonassi gave a presentation about the project during a panel entitled “Circular economy for a better world” along with some other inspiring speakers including the Italian MEP Simona Bonafé.

On the 10^th of May, Eurovix hold a workshop to present the INAPRO project and their own bio-promoters to a selected group of fish farmers, researchers and possible end-users.
