The R&I activity is developed thanks to the structures and technical equipment of Cereal Docks Group Lab. This way it is possible to do research and innovation applied to processes and products in close synergy with other company functions, in particular production. This model enables effective assessment of the real impact of research in terms of business applicability, consolidation, and expansion.
The R&I Department includes a multi-disciplinary team of experts in several disciplines, not just scientific but also humanistic/economic, such as surveys of markets and user needs. This further promotes creation of collaborative networks both inside and outside the Group.
WHY A RESEARCH & INNOVATION DEPARTMENT?
In an increasingly more complex, rapidly changing world, Research & Innovation represents the “auxiliary motor of the Cereal Docks Group” accelerating towards tomorrow.
WHERE DO WE WANT TO GO?
The guiding star of Research & Innovation activities consists in “contributing to the growth of the Cereal Docks Group towards the nutrition and wellness sectors linked to food; in order to become one of the European leaders in the human and animal food and nutrition, sustainability and circular economy areas.”
WHAT DOES THE RESEARCH & INNOVATION DEPARTMENT DO?
