About COOPID

COOPID is an H2020-funded project active since January 2021 with the mission to foster the development of the bioeconomy in the agri-food sector. With this goal, the project has implemented a strategy based on a cascading multiplier effect:

  1. The selection of 11 real successful businesses in the EU and the organisation of visits to these cases. Participants raised to more than 500.
  2. An ambassador programme with primary producers (127 #COOPIDambassadors) and more than 1500 impacts.
  3. The production of high-quality resources (>4000 downloads & views) and a supportive digital project presence.
