Abstract
Agrifood is a significant component of the Italian economy: alone it is worth about 4% of GDP; innovation and development of many complementary supply chains (foodtech, food equipment, mechanics) are driven by its products and processes. Together with food, an articulated economy grows that includes catering, hospitality and services. The fortunes of national food are linked to its association with tradition. Its future, however, depends on its ability to project these values into a tumultuously changing world. The environmental emergency, changes in demand, the restructuring of distribution channels, new geographies of consumption and production, the threats and opportunities posed by new technologies: around these ‘breaking’ points, agrifood companies will have to review their processes and strategies, their way of relating to markets and production and territorial ecosystems. The book analyses the challenges facing food companies and maps out possible trajectories of development and innovation.
