FOODITY Practice Abstract no. 36: Industry & food system actors' views on bottlenecks preventing data sharing

The #Data4Food Cluster comprising the DRG4Food, FOODITY, FoodDataQuest, and SOSFood projects organised a joint workshop in June 2025 to discuss challenges, enablers, and gains related to data sharing and AI-driven solutions for sustainable food systems. Two breakout room sessions explored perspectives from both consumers/citizens and industry/food system actors on data sharing and AI in food systems. This practice abstract discusses industry & food system actors’ views on key bottlenecks preventing data sharing, particularly data related with health and consumers, supply chain and production, waste and environmental, social and behavioural, animal welfare, and business and management.
