It encourages collaboration and innovation in applying robotics to address agricultural efficiency, and food production.

Call for proposals Food 4.0

Food production in Switzerland is facing increasing competitive pressure. A Europe-wide trend towards increasingly cheaper food is extremely difficult to contend with in view of the existing level of salary/ production costs in Switzerland. This means innovative developments for the Swiss food system are required to develop the production of safe, healthy and tasty food to ensure Switzerland remains a commercially relevant production location for food and food industry manufacturing technologies in future.
