About
The Advanced Food Innovation Centre (AFIC) at Sheffield Hallam University, UK, undertakes interdisciplinary, industry-oriented research to advance sustainable, resilient and digitally enabled food systems.
We are interested in joining Horizon Europe consortia addressing the resilience of European agriculture and related supply chains against climate-related disruptions, crises and systemic risks.
Our potential contributions include:
-
AI, machine learning, digital twins and data-driven decision-support systems for supply-chain resilience.
-
Supply-chain risk assessment, scenario analysis and resilience modelling.
-
Digital traceability, transparency and monitoring of agri-food value chains.
-
Climate adaptation strategies, sustainable sourcing and resource efficiency.
-
Environmental, economic and social impact assessment.
-
Industry engagement, stakeholder co-creation and validation of practical resilience solutions.
We seek collaboration with universities, research organisations, agricultural and food-sector businesses, technology providers, policymakers and industry partners.
Our objective is to contribute as a research and innovation partner, supporting evidence-based decision-making, innovative resilience strategies and sustainable transformation of European agri-food supply chains.
