Fooder stems from the collaboration of various entities aspiring to create an international model, an example of virtuous integration between research, production, and education.
The project involves five universities (University of Parma, which coordinates the project, University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, University of Bologna Alma Mater, University of Ferrara, and Catholic University of the Sacred Heart in Piacenza), which have formed an association in collaboration with businesses and public entities.
Among our prestigious collaborators are the Emilia-Romagna Region and the Clust-ER Agri-food, as well as significant companies in the agri-food sector that are a source of pride for our region.
Our goal is to promote increasingly closer and robust cooperation, involving a growing number of companies and entities rooted in the territory and the agri-food sector. This will enable us to jointly develop new international training programs in English for future professionals, through open dialogue, knowledge sharing, and the contribution of international experts.
Fooder is an evolving project. We are trying to expand our network of collaborations to include all the Emilia-Romagna players who espouse this vision and crave to bring added value to the project. What are the advantages for participating companies?
