The FoodDataQuest team started the new year 2025 with positive news: the project is as of now part of the FOOD2030 network.
The FOOD 2030 Online Platform serves as a unified hub for projects, partnerships, networks, and living labs dedicated to transforming the food system for the well-being of both people and the planet. It compiles resources, toolkits, projects, labs, and more to enhance your knowledge and broaden your network in the realm of sustainable food system transformation.
Managed by UCPH, the FOOD2030 Project Collaboration Network aims to unite European, national, and regional projects to foster synergies and drive collaborative efforts toward food system transformation.
The FoodDataQuest project aims to bring about more sustainable and healthy diets by involving stakeholders across the food supply chain. More data, including new data sources, unconventional players, and enhanced data sharing will provide insights for the food industry that drive the move to sustainable and healthy diets.
The project will pioneer four transformative use cases:
A DNA-data driven AI system for Food Sustainability and Traceability: Developed by partners Agroknow and BioCoS, this approach aims to enhance the olive oil supply chain’s sustainability and traceability, valorizing local species and producers while optimizing strategies against climatic challenges.
Reimagining Food Services in Healthcare: This initiative, led by our partners Netcompany – Intrasoft, Syreon, University Medical Center Maribor, and GS1, focuses on improving patient health and reducing food waste in hospitals and elderly care homes, shifting towards nutritious, sustainable food options.
F2F Food Sustainability Insights: Led by project partners EV ILVO, GS1, Colruyt Group, Nijsen company, and Palau Project, this use-case promotes a shift to sustainable, healthy diets by processing a blend of agricultural and unconventional data to support food quality and consumer choices.
Enhancing Consumer Awareness of Eco-Friendly Choices: Coordinated by Wageningen University, with Tampere University and Palau Project as partners, this use-case aims to provide consumers with personalized eco-friendly choices through high-density data-driven communication, utilizing AI technologies to guide sustainable lifestyle decisions.
