About event

Save the Date : Agrifood4Future CoVE Network Meeting

As part of the Agrifood4Future Erasmus+ project, we are pleased to invite members of the Centres of Vocational Excellence (CoVEs), project partners and external stakeholders to an online networking and discussion event taking place on 26 May 2026.

This half-day of discussions will aim to prepare the CoVEs for the future beyond the project: continuity of collaborations, structuring of the network, administrative operations, European prospects and the sustainability of the actions undertaken.

This collective session will also provide an opportunity to share feedback, best practices and the expectations of the various partners involved in agri-food training and innovation ecosystems.

We especially welcome: members of CoVEs, project partners, vocational training providers, clusters, technical centres, businesses and organisations involved in European initiatives relating to skills and the agri-food sector. 

The event is part of the wider Agrifood4Future 3rd Year Consortium Meeting, which will continue with a partners-only internal session on 28 May 2026.
