Strengthening of the Italian Research Infrastructure for Metrology and Open Access Data in support to the Agrifood
The representatives of the PNRR METROFOOD-IT project recently gathered in Rome to review the progress of the initiative.
The European research infrastructure METROFOOD-RI is ready to enter a new phase, marked by its strengthened position in the world of agrifood innovation.
A recent report by FEDERALIMENTARE highlighted that the export of the Italian food industry recorded a +9.3% growth in the first seven months of the year, potentially reaching around €57 billion by the end of 2024. This figure aligns with recent years, which have seen increasingly significant growth rates.
Food safety must be guaranteed by properly managing chemical, biological, and physical risks throughout the entire agri-food chain, from primary production to distribution and consumption. Scientific research plays a key role in supporting the production system and protecting consumer health.
The enthusiasm shown for the Open Event of the METROFOOD-EPI project, scheduled for December 13 in Rome, surprised even us. We would like to inform you that, due to reaching the maximum capacity of the hall, we have had to close registration. For the same reason, we kindly ask those who are registered but unable to attend to notify us promptly.
We are pleased to announce that the Open Event of METROFOOD-EPI (Early Phase Implementation) project will be held at Hotel NH Collection Roma Giustiniano, in Rome, the 13th of December.
