Welcome to FINEST - Food Innovation for Sustainable System Transition

FINEST aims to create conditions for sustainable product and system innovation in the Swedish food system by supporting both radical and effective innovation in active collaboration between academia, private and public actors.

We do this by

Combining technical, scientific and social science research on innovation management, systemic change and sustainability in collaboration.
Bringing together the whole value chain. Addressing challenges where the different actors in the chain need to work together.
Working from concrete value chains

The FINEST platform builds on the Formas-funded FINEST centre (2020-2024).

In 2020-2024, FINEST focused on three value chains: Swedish forest berries, Protein-rich legumes, and Experimental food production. Going forward, the FINEST platform will have a broader perspective and include more value chains.
