OPEN CONSULTATION
 

TRADEIT has been engaged in an EU wide consultation with SME Food Producers since 2013, to identify the innovation opportunities, needs and barriers of traditional family based enterprises. The outcomes presented in this draft Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) are not as anticipated. The needs of these small to micro-SMEs differ greatly from the larger food industry and require specific innovation supports and actions. This SRIA is now in an open consultation phase and  your input is valued. Please visit the open consultation website http://www.tradeitnetwork.eu/sria where comments are welcome in any language. On this site you will be able to read the full SRIA. A bullet point summary of the major business science and food science needs of small traditional food SMEs is given below in this newsletter. Please tell us if we have missed anything!

You can send your feedback to SRIA@tradeitnetwork.eu or via the open consultation website http://www.tradeitnetwork.eu/sria . By Thursday 11th February 2016!
