Funky Food: Functional Food in Focus – Creating a Nordic Knowledge Platform

Food production is one off the biggest and most important industries in the Nordic countries. The market for functional food is now considered to be one of the most dynamic and growing segment of the food industry.

The Nordic food industry has a great potential to become a remarkable player in the functional food market by combining competence, experience and technical expertise together with available R&D in the Nordic countries. A Nordic home market with well educated and informed consumers will secure quality and give competitive advantages.

Nordic Innovation Centre, by deciding to create a Nordic knowledge platform for Functional Food, will support the Nordic food industry to take its share of the growing functional foods market.

A call for expression of interests can be expected later this year.
