This Mapping is part of WP1 ‘Map, inspire and connect’ performed by InovCluster, that aims to identify the key organisations in the Atlantic Area that have relevant expertise and/ or resources related to the advanced technologies, techniques, processes and product trends identified in the Technology Roadmap (A1.1). It was created a comprehensive database of these organisations and their profiles, including their capabilities, resources, and areas of expertise.

This database was converted in two Dynamic Maps: the Map of Entities and the Map of Technologies, both dully connected and that are allocated at the Hub4Food website. Its end-users are SMEs, or other relevant stakeholders from the food industry from the Atlantic Area, have no access to know what food technologies and knowledge are available for them, accordingly to their expectations, challenges and objectives for the development of new food products and also, where and how to reach them. Both maps provide a very effective search tool, that can be used joining several criteria by the SMEs, accordingly to their expectations.
