The green industry is facing one of it’s largest challenges yet. A large part of our carbon dioxide emission can be traced back to the various stages of food production and the industry needs to evolve and change – now. By being active in the issues at hand, the Swedish Agricultural University (SLU) has a key role in the solving the problem, continuously presenting new findings from research in all areas of environmental sciences.
As a complement to these findings, there is a need to push them even further. To implement and develop them into new businesses, to make the ideas into reality. Time is up and we are facing a new world where innovation and entrepreneurship will, inevitably, be needed to change our industry.
That is why Sparbanken Skåne, through its ownership foundation Finn, Sparbanken Skaraborg and Sparbankstiftelsen Norrland, is investing in three innovation awards together with SLU Holding and the Swedish University of Agriculture
