Agrocluster Ribatejo was in Mexico between November 7 and 11 with some of the Natureef project partners. The trip, carried out under this European project, had the objective of preparing a business mission to this country that is expected to happen next year, with the participation of several European SMEs in the renewable energy, biotechnology, agro-food waste management, agricultural and biomass technologies sectors.
The agenda of the trip included the participation in the Expo Agroalimentaria de Guanajuato, the most important agro-food trade fair in this country.
In addition, the Langebio – Genetic Research Laboratory for Biodiversity was visited, where testimonies were collected in the field of species breeding, breeding of new varieties and sequencing of genomes, and the Agropark High-Tech Greenhouse Cluster, the only greenhouse center in America and the Instituto Tecnológico de Monterrey in Guadalajara.
Based on the prospect visit report, the Natureef project will organize a business mission to European SMEs in the second half of 2017 and will be led by the French cluster Vegepolys, with the support of the other partners of the project. The European business mission is targeted at SMEs. During the mission preparation trip, which began on November 7 and ended on November 11, several partners of the Natureef project were present, among them Agrocluster Ribatejo, FEMAC (Spain), Vegepollys (France) and Innoskart (Hungary).
