Conclusion of the event: 

Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes is a region where the agri-food sector is one of the leading economic sectors employing tens of thousands of people. The region benefits from a large network of companies and stakeholders involved in the desire to build a qualitative agrifood sector. This desire is helped by actors in training and technical centers participating in supporting companies, particularly in their innovation process.

The study visit enabled the project partners to meet two major regional stakeholders, each with a technological platform that can be made available to food companies to perform demonstrations, tests, feasibility studies... As part of the work carried out by CONNSENSYS on the living lab network, these two visits were interesting to illustrate the concrete work carried out by the technological platforms.
