Think4Food is a project connecting cooperative enterprises with start-ups, researchers and university students who are developing innovative ideas for sustainable development in the agri-food sector. Inspired by the cooperative principle of cross-generational learning we want to enhance and support young talent in the agri-food sector, they provide a network of skills, expertise and relationships of the cooperative movement from our region.

To set up the connection of cooperatives with start-ups, researchers and students Think4Food is promoting a Call 4 Ideas for young people under 40 with innovative ideas which contribute to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the 2030 UN Agenda. The call will allow partecipants to promote their ideas to business and at the same time allow cooperative enterprise to discover innovative projects and identify individual talent for open innovation partnerships.

A team of experts in the agri-food sector will select the best and most innovative ideas and reward them in the following categories:

• Start-ups (5,000 euros)
• Researchers (3,500 euros)
• Students (1,500 euros).
