We invite you to get to know the FTD LT Cluster's strategy and development guidelines, learn more about our initiatives and cooperation opportunities:
Sustainable development goals
Sustainable economic growth is one of the key objectives of the European Union (EU). Due to the global shortage of natural resources, the main challenge for producers and consumers has been to get more at lower cost. To meet this challenge in the face of rapid climate change and growing demand for energy and resources, the EU has put in place a wide range of policies and initiatives to ensure sustainable consumption and production. They should help to improve the overall environmental performance of products throughout their whole life cycle, stimulate demand for higher quality products and production technologies and help consumers to make informed product choices. Under the European Green Course, and in particular the new Circular Economy Action Plan, a legislative initiative on sustainable product policy has been launched to ensure that products are adapted to climate-neutral, resource-efficient and circular economy needs.
The Food Technologies Digitalization LT cluster and its members are developing a sustainable production business. For us, it is a synergy of responsible approach and action, where the latest technologies, the best industrial knowledge and skills help to implement the principles of sustainable business in everyday activities. Through its activities, the cluster contributes to the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, which are in line with the business vision and values of Food Technologies Digitalization LT.
