Study «Emerging Technology Domains»

As a basis for further activities as part of the Food 4.0 initiative, a study was carried out to identify relevant, future and technological areas of development for the Swiss food system, led by Prof. Erich Windhab of the Federal Institute of Technology Zurich. On the basis of a literature analysis, and then prioritised by experts, four emerging technology domains were identified that are of interest to the Swiss food system in terms of research expertise, innovation and economic relevance. The Swiss Academies of Arts and Sciences will implement projects aimed at establishing a future-oriented food system in Switzerland in the emerging technology domains identified (pdf) over the next four years.
