Fundraising Day: Accelerating Impact

Explore funding opportunities for the green agri-food transition. Meet key funders, gain insights, and connect across the innovation ecosystem.

Transforming the food and bioresource system requires more than great ideas – it requires aligned funding at the right moments.

At this event, Food & Bio Cluster Denmark unveils a new mapping of the funding landscape. The mapping highlights how private and public funders, in Denmark and internationally, collectively support the systemic shifts needed across the food and bioresource system – from local implementation to global transformation.

Join us to explore where the real funding opportunities lie, understand how they connect to key transition points, and meet the actors who can help bring your green innovation project to life.
