Ploutos H2020

Spotlight

In Focus: Case studies for Sustainable Innovation

The Ploutos H2020 project works with 11 Sustainable Innovation Pilots (SIPS) in 13 European countries, implementing & testing sustainability-oriented innovations (SOIs). s. Together with other initiatives, such as the Ploutos Innovation Academy, one of the tools to facilitate this exchange and horizontal learning process is the use of case studies. The tool’s purpose is to produce case studies that are accessible and pedagogical to facilitate learning across SIPs and to inform their practices.

🌿Sustainable Innovation Pilot 11 aims to introduce IoT solutions to the agri-food sector and connect agriculture with tourism activities.

In Focus: the future of food lifestyles

At Lowlands Science 2022, TNO applied the futuring technique of “closed eye visioning” to bring festival participants to a dystopian or optimistic perspective in the year 2050. Both perspectives were based on realistic energy scenarios. Read the blog post to find out insights for policy recommendations.

Supporting wine producers in taking advantage of the changes in labelling regulations and enhancing their sustainability performance

Practice Abstract – Sustainable Innovation Pilot 7

A collection of all the outcomes & recommendations derived from Ploutos Sustainable Innovation Pilot 6 shows that precision agriculture ensures overall soil health and enhance sustainability.

In Focus: Ploutos Innovation Academy

The Ploutos Innovation Academy (PIA) is a virtual space where mutual knowledge exchanges around sustainability-oriented innovations (SOIs) take place. PIA has the potential to establish an effective participatory methodology for the development of sustainable solutions and knowledge-sharing that can pave the way for the transformation of the agri-food supply chain.

Success Stories

Tasting Success: Innovative Agri-food Pilots share their inspiring Success Stories

Ploutos project has the potential to significantly impact agri-food value chains in a positive way. By keeping trck of the sustainability impact of the pilots deployed within Ploutos and by effectively communicating this information, we aim to demonstrate our commitment to driving positive change in the agri-food industry.
