Belgium is highly competitive in the fields of biotechnology and agri-food, and in particular boasts Europe's top level of research in plant science. Universities such as Ghent University and Leuven University are working closely with industry in the areas of plant breeding, fermentation, and food tech to accelerate the commercialization of research results. It is also an important gateway for technology demonstration and market deployment due to its access to European regulations and markets. RIVANES will continue to jointly demonstrate sustainable agri-food technologies based in Belgium, leading to their deployment throughout Europe.<\/p>\n\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-2\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\r\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\r\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\r\n\t\t\t<h2>Project<\/h2>\n\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_inner vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-4\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\r\n\t<div  class=\"wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_left\">\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t<figure class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_figure\">\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_single_image-wrapper   vc_box_border_grey\"><img width=\"600\" height=\"420\" src=\"https:\/\/gbp.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2025\/12\/tp2025_01.png\" class=\"vc_single_image-img attachment-full\" alt=\"Tech Planter\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gbp.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2025\/12\/tp2025_01.png 600w, https:\/\/gbp.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2025\/12\/tp2025_01-18x12.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/figure>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\r\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\r\n\t\t\t<p>TECH PLANTER is a deep tech venture ecosystem that solves unsolved \"deep issues\" with \"deep tech\", a collection of science and technology.
