FoodDataQuest
On a Quest for Data-Driven Innovations to Fuel Sustainable Food Systems
FoodDataQuest is an ambitious initiative to promote sustainability and optimise data sharing in the European Union’s food sector. The project aims to revolutionise the food industry’s approach to sustainability, promote healthier diets, and foster a vibrant community for effective data sharing among key stakeholders. At the heart of the FoodDataQuest strategy is a series of innovative use cases, carefully designed to address key issues such as improving food traceability through AI technology, increasing sustainability in food service operations, and significantly increasing consumer awareness of sustainable options.
With an inclusive approach that aims to engage over 100 different stakeholders, FoodDataQuest is strategically positioned to refine supply chain transparency, establish and disseminate sustainability best practices, and meticulously develop frameworks for integrating essential sustainability-related data. These frameworks are intended to facilitate highly personalised communication with consumers, thereby driving a transformative shift towards more environmentally conscious and sustainable consumption patterns across the European Union.
