With the aim of stimulating innovation and the transfer of knowledge in the agri-food sector, the Department of Climate Action, Food and Rural Agenda (DACC) of the Generalitat de Catalunya and the Institute of Research and Technology of Agro-alimentaries (IRTA), will count on the framework of the Food Fair 2024 with the ESPAI INNOVA.cat. In this area, a specific 'Pitching Day' for emerging companies has been scheduled for Tuesday 19 March.

Companies that are interested in making their project and value proposition known to food companies and investors around the world can apply to participate in the "Pitching Day" through the following registration form. For more information, see the Terms of Participation.

The selected startups will be able to defend their project, relate to investors and experts in the agri-food sector and have credentials to access Alimentaria. In addition, 8 of them will have a free exhibition space during the four days of the fair.

If you are an emerging company that wants to make your project known on the market, from the DACC and the IRTA we invite you to participate and not to let this opportunity pass you by in the framework of an internationally relevant exhibition.
