The EU4Advice consortium is pleased to invite you to the Annual Event of the Sustainable Food Systems (SFS) Innovation Platform, "EU Advisory Networks: Collaborating for Resilient and Sustainable Food Systems", taking place online on Friday 30 October 2026, 10:00–11:30 CET.
The SFS Innovation Platform is a free, open-access online space managed by the EU4Advice, CORENET, WATSON and WASTELESS initiatives. It connects actors across Europe’s agri-food and research ecosystems, supporting knowledge sharing, collaboration and innovation around sustainable farming and food systems.
The event will explore how European advisory networks facilitate knowledge sharing and capacity building, help identify innovative solutions and put them into practice across EU Member States. Anchored in the Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems (AKIS) under the CAP Strategic Plans, these networks strengthen the connection between individual advisors and national AKIS structures — bridging the European and national levels.
The event brings together the advisory services and networks funded under Horizon Europe Cluster 6:
- short food supply chains — EU4Advice and CORENET
- soil health through nature-based solutions — NBSoil
- reducing the use and risks of pesticides — AdvisoryNetPEST
- organic farming expertise — OrganicAdviceNetwork
- integrated fertilisation management — STRATUS
- forest advisory services — FORADVISE
- adoption of climate-smart farming practices — ClimateSmartAdvisors

The event is open to all, whether you work in agri-food, research or innovation, or are simply interested in how digital platforms can support knowledge exchange in Europe. Please feel free to forward this invitation to colleagues and stakeholders who may be interested.
