How it works
Working with agrifoodTEF in Austria is straightforward for European companies. To understand your objectives and the challenges, we begin with an introductory meeting, held via phone, video conference, or in person. If our expertise aligns with your needs, we jointly define the most suitable form of collaboration. After assessing eligibility for the subsidised programme and clarifying confidentiality, your company gains access to our partner services.
We then jointly define the service scope and output implementation to start immediately. Trials are conducted remotely, on our test fields, or at your premises, with regular progress updates provided. Upon completion, results are discussed in a joint final meeting, followed by brief written feedback from participating companies to conclude the process.
