Brokerage Event – Smart and Innovative Precision Farming
The Danube macro-region provides ideal framework conditions for the area of smart and innovative
precision farming due to high-quality natural resources, long tradition, well-known universities and SMEs operating in given area. However, the region is still lagging behind its possibilities and missing links between research and innovation hamper the access to required knowledge and resources.
In such a context, the Union of Slovak Clusters (UKS) organised, on the 26 November 2018, a matchmaking event to bring together the representatives of SMEs, R&D institutions and academia to foster local innovation capacity through good practices examples and knowledge exchange in the area of smart and innovative precision farming.
The event took place in Nitra, Slovakia in the context of the Made in Danube project funded by the Interreg Danube Transnational Programme.
BIOVOICES project, its goals and related events were presented by PEDAL representative.
