The EIT Food Accelerator Network is a theme-based program for agrifood-tech startups, run by EIT Food, which is a Knowledge and Innovation Community (KIC) supported by the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), an EU body. The program connects startups with corporate and research partners to validate their technology, advance investment readiness, and achieve market adoption. It provides funding opportunities, including travel grants and investments up to €50,000 via SAFE instruments, to participating startups. The broader EIT Food organization aims to make the food system more sustainable, healthy, and trusted by investing in innovative projects, organizations, and individuals.
