Three pillars of activity, or where we drive change?
AgriTech
Foundation for agricultural technology creators
Modern solutions and technologies that help better manage crops and animal husbandry. They enable more precise farm management, which can translate into savings in time, fuel, and production costs. At 4Podlaskie, we connect innovators with science to support the development of our region and make fuller use of its unique resources.
FoodTech
Modern production and quality
Food processing technologies that preserve natural nutritional values while guaranteeing a safe, controlled composition. They help producers build a brand based on consistent quality and customer trust. We open and facilitate access to grants for solutions that leverage the agricultural and food potential of Podlaskie.
HealthTech
Technologies for health and prevention
Innovations supporting health, from diagnostics to formulations based on natural ingredients. They enable the development of health-promoting solutions that aid in treating diet-related diseases. 4Podlaskie connects the potential of Podlaskie's universities with business to transform the region's unique resources into high-quality bioactive products.
