The project "Network for knowledge transfer in the food craft sector (transNetz)" has three main objectives: -the establishment of cross-border networking between and with the actors in the food craft sector, in particular the funded innovation projects; -the creation of thematic clusters in the food craft sector; -the knowledge transfer to different target groups. Thus, transNetz contributes to the creation of an innovation ecosystem within the food craft sector, which accelerates a future-oriented development of the food industry. In transNetz two levels are considered equally: -a structural framework has to be developed -that facilitates a thematic exchange between actors. transNetz is implemented on the basis of three pillars: First, we will use methods from empirical social research and innovation development to draw the status quo in the food craft sector with regard to insights into innovations, actors and their network structures. In addition, we will capture the thematic and structural needs of the relevant actors. In the second pillar, we will build the basis for the innovation ecosystem by iteratively creating organizational structures in a participatory process in order to establish thematic networks. The networks will emerge, on the one hand, between the innovation projects and, on the other hand, with the food craft sector in different thematic clusters. In the third pillar, we will ensure the transfer of knowledge and results for various target groups in the food craft sector and to policy and society. In addition to the internal knowledge transfer, we will also implement a transfer to other target groups from politics and the public. Our concept is based on active involvement of participants in the development process in a iterative manner and to jointly develop innovative and needs-oriented formats.
