About Plant Power Project

About

The Plant Power Project is dedicated to transforming Europe’s food sector through innovation and sustainability. Our mission is to empower food SMEs, VET providers, and policymakers with the skills, resources, and strategies needed to embrace plant-based products and contribute to a greener future.

The Plant Power project believes in the power of knowledge and collaboration to drive positive change. Our project provides practical, accessible tools and training materials to help SMEs create innovative, eco-conscious products. For VET providers, we offer tailored resources to enhance their courses and equip learners with skills for the growing plant-based market. Policymakers gain strategies to promote sustainable growth, economic resilience, and climate action.

Collaboration is key to our success. Plant Power brings together food entrepreneurs, educators, and policymakers across Europe to share knowledge, spark innovation, and build a sustainable future for the food industry.

Join us in reshaping the food sector. Together, we can we can cut environmental impact, meet demand for plant-based products, and build a sustainable future.

We can create a sustainable future by eating more plants and wasting less food.

Driving Change, One Bite at a Time

The Plant Power Project addresses the urgent need to reduce the environmental impact of Europe’s food sector while fostering innovation in plant-based product development. Food production is a major contributor to climate change, but through innovative training and resources, we aim to transform this challenge into an opportunity. By equipping food SMEs and educators with the skills, tools, and knowledge they need, we empower them to adopt sustainable practices, develop plant-based products, and meet growing consumer demand. Plant Power is more than a project—it’s a vital step toward a healthier, greener future where businesses thrive and the planet benefits.

Who We Serve

At Plant Power, we’re committed to making a positive impact on various groups in our community. Here’s who we’re excited to support:
We empower owners, managers, and employees of food SMEs, particularly those without access to product innovation or entrepreneurial training. Whether working in small organisations, living in remote areas, or seeking to overcome past challenges in learning, our resources are designed to help SMEs thrive in the growing plant-based market.
Vocational education and training (VET) providers—such as colleges, food hubs, and enterprise centres—gain tailored resources to integrate plant-based innovation into their courses. By collaborating with us, they can offer cutting-edge training that equips learners with skills for the future.
Policymakers in education, food, and enterprise sectors benefit from strategies that promote sustainable growth, enhance workforce resilience, and align with EU climate goals. Our resources provide actionable solutions to support economic development and innovation in the plant-based food industry.
