OASIS is BIM’s ambitious circular economy project.
In order to produce fish sustainably in the future,
system designs must embrace the circular
economy. The project involves farming fish
organically on old peatlands. The farm produces
fish utilising wind energy for power and nutrients
produced are absorbed by algae and duckweed
which can be then harvested and used as
alternative protein. Water abstraction and
discharge is minimal. BIM is seeking partners to
further improve the methodology and practices of
sustainable farming, embracing the circular
economy approach.

TOPICS - Multiple

Proposed Approach
COVID-19 has revealed vulnerabilities in transport-dependent infrastructure; ‘live local’ has yielded
benefits, not hardship. Green Deal is more than carbon-reduction systems but changing societal
behaviour. Circular economies are usually zero-waste supply chains but we advocate meaningful
geo-centric local eco(no)systems: holistic, inclusive, natural, human, renewable, resources.
We seek partners who value humanity at the hub of farm and fork. We are principled practitioners:
we have a 60ha. farm waiting to be a demonstration site of sustainable land management in an
international World Heritage Site, next to communities needing employment and healthy lifestyles
and a boost to their economy: we seek soulmate experts doing similar things in traditional skills,
biodiversity, agriculture, horticulture, renewable energy, social and therapeutic learning.
Cultura is a UK-based European NGO having 55
years’ experience in cultural heritage management,
supporting sustainable economic communities. Its
director is a board member of Europa Nostra and is

deliverable Green Deal action across the various
themes including the Renovation Wave.
Experience
Cultura demonstrates the value of
holistic, social investment/inclusive
cultural-economic projects, including
Council of Europe ‘Golden Collection’
and a European Award for traditional
skills training. Its message has spread
across Europe with Europa Nostra,
Erasmus+, Horizon 2020, VIGIE, and

LC-GD-6-1-2020 Farm to Fork

Proposed Approach
Deep Learning has demonstrated outstanding performance
in plant phenotyping and agricultural tasks. Robust machine
learning models for plant image analysis are useful towards
a more sustainable agriculture to increase yield potential.
However, one problem is the generalisability of trained models.
Can a model trained in a specific scenario work in a different one?
We need cross-domain machine learning models. I propose to develop a domain adaptation
training protocol that can work for agricultural purposes (can handle regression problems, alleviate
the requirement of annotated data in the target dataset, increase data privacy).
Challenges: different crops, traits to analyse, and acquisition scenarios.
Example: focusing in a specific context (e.g., same crop type, like wheat), the desiderata is to
generalise a pretrained model to work for wheat grown in different regions (conditions change →
pretrained models will not well generalise), using Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) to
reduce the domain gap. GANs will help to learn cross-domain representations of images of plants.
We have GPUs: If my current grant under review is
successful, we will increase even more our
computational capacity.
We have skills not only in machine learning and
deep learning, but also in robotics (e.g. drones).
We are research-active (although covid-19 is not
helping much). During this first year, I have
submitted 3 grant proposals!
Our students are getting a lot of interests into
computer vision (it was not a well-explored field
before I joined Napier). They are eager to get
involved even for small bits of a bigger project.
Experience
I am an Early Career Researcher. I have 5 years of experience in machine learning, deep learning, computer vision
applied to plant science problems. I am part of the Edinburgh Plant Science (Early Career Research Organising
committee). I have closed relationships with colleagues at the University of Edinburgh (UK), Wageningen University
(NL), University of Bolzano (IT), University of Catania (IT). Some are involved in plant image analysis, others in
machine learning (some other for both!). I am a guest editor for a special issue focussing on plants and ML

Overview
NIAB has a long history in developing the scientific basis for moving towards sustainable agricultural
systems. We understand the complex interplay between farming techniques that have been
developed to maximise yield and short term profitability and the longer term requirement to manage
soil health, water quality, air quality and biodiversity. In the face of climate change these factors are
becoming ever more important.
We are keen to work with academic and commercial partners who are looking to address the call for
“Testing and demonstrating systemic innovations in support of the Farm-to-Fork Strategy” (LC-GD-6-
1-2020). Our ability to run trials and demonstrators at scale is well established and we hope to
leverage that within a collaborative partnership.
NIAB has over 400 staff based across 12 UK sites with
state-of-the-art infrastructure. We transfer innovations
in agricultural science into practical farming and
horticultural techniques.
Our facilities have recently benefited from a €50M
investment programme and we have state of the art
laboratories, glasshouses and field trial facilities. We
are the largest trials organisation in the UK and run
150,000 trial plots each year.
NIAB is a registered charity with 100 years of excellence
in the agriculture industry. Projects in this field are
directly aligned with our charitable aims and allow us to
grow our capabilities and increase the impact we are
able to have.

LC-GD-6-1-2020: Testing and demonstrating systemic innovations in support of the Farm-to-Fork
Strategy

Proposed Approach
Problem 1: Excessive use of antibiotics in agriculture
Problem 2: There is hugely increasing number of feed, field, soil and animal sensors on market for
farmers, and very little information how they have been validated
Solution 1. We would like to test and develop application for strong new antimicrobial peptides
that were discovered from Northern nature and patented at the University of Oulu few years ago.
Solution 2. We are an experienced Unit of Measurement Technology interested in impartial testing
and validation of new sensor innovations for agriculture and food industry – as well as to evaluate
new solutions already at market.
University of Oulu is the main university in
Northern Finland with 13 000 students. It has skilful
support services for research including international
collaboration projects, IPR rights and
commercialization of innovations.
Unit of Measurement Technology is specialized on
measurement development from microbial assays
to point-of-care biosensors and continuous
environmental monitoring: it has also expertise to
validate and commercialize innovations.
Experience
1. Coordinating two Finnish EIP-Agri Operational Groups: Smartfeed and Good for cattle dealing
with sensor development, feed analytics, mobile applications and new antimicrobials. In
Finland, EIP-AGRI OGs are the flag-ship projects of rural development, there have been only 12
awarded so far, and we are only research unit that has been (and is) coordinating two of them
2. Focused exclusively on applied research with development of innovations, collaboration with
companies and has a large collaboration network also with local farmers and vocational
farmers college -> ideal piloting and testing site at Nordic environment.
3. Strong experience in health & wellbeing diagnostics, especially in biosensors for stress and

TOPIC-6.1. From farm to fork

Proposed Approach
Interest in all areas of the Green Deal. Area 6 Farm to Fork -
Subtopics A, C, D and F in particular.
Ø Our agricultural practices have significant impacts on the global
biogeochemical cycles of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus. We
are looking to work with consortia where we can utilise our
detailed understanding and expertise in studying these cycles to
minimise the impact of agricultural production systems on them.
We also recognise the challenge of antimicrobial resistance in
livestock systems and want to work on holistic approaches to
tackle this.
Ø We would be interested in talking with academic and industry
partners to develop proposals. READING is mainly Interested in
partnering on collaborative bids, potentially also coordinating.
We bring internationally recognised experts in agriculture-environment
interactions as well as academics with expertise in the socio-economic
aspects of farming. We have world class facilities including arable and
dairy farms, gas exchange measurement capabilities and analytical
laboratories for processing of samples.
From agri-environmental research to diseases which cross the species
barrier between animals and people, our applied work relates to real-
world issues and extends through the food chain to connect with health,
the environment, economic prosperity, heritage and culture.
We apply our expertise to address global issues including climate change,
resource degradation, hunger, poverty, diet and health. Our experts work
with partners globally and locally to influence both policy and practice to
ensure evidence-informed decision making.
Experience
We have significant experience in undertaking multidisciplinary
action-oriented research with international partners, into all aspects
of agricultural production systems and their environments. We
regularly work with industry and policy sectors to deliver our
research. READING has a strong track record of working in European
projects (H2020/FP7: >190 projects, >€88M) and is home to
excellence and frontier research including ERC and MSCA.

Marine and Industrial Propulsion
Ecomar focuses on maritime and industrial zero emission propulsion delivery.
We specifically work on identifying and designing solutions for high power users such as ferries,
workboats etc which need to reduce or eliminate emissions. Our primary objective is to enable
retrofit solutions which reduce capital expenditure and retain embedded carbon. This ensures rapid
de-carbonisation of plant and machinery at reduced cost.
We are particularly interested in working with companies that have previously considered de-
carbonisation too expensive or time consuming. We work to identify real needs, rather than
abstract concepts that are costly and overly complex.
We specialise in examination of real world duty
cycles which inform design of practical solutions.
We are an SME that was founded by experts from
powerboat racing and high performance marine.
Our flexibility and rapid delivery combined with low
overheads and a focus on capital reduction provide
cost effective and rapid delivery.
Experience
We have a small team of experts in electric propulsion and commercial activation and have
partnerships with large battery manufacturers, engineering design (including motors) and
prestigious academic institutions.
We currently work with Saietta Electric Drives, Durapower Batteries, the Universities of Exeter,
Newcastle, Warwick and Portsmouth and for a range of key clients including major international
climate change NGO’s and high performance sailing regattas.
We prefer to be a contractor or JV partner in any
enterprise.

Proposed Approach
Cereal industry creates products that are extremely processed and full of harmful ingredients and additives
that further increase the risk of non-transferable diseases. The healthier cereals substitute sugars for
sweeteners or hide them within the compound ingredients. All the existing cereal are not balanced to our
needs and What is your understanding of the part of the problem you can solve?
We aim to reverse the currently existing model in the breakfast industry and instead of catering to mass
population we care for individual needs, and allow to design muesli that will enhance productivity, save
money and time, be cost effective and don’t pollute Earth.
We want to address:
1. Reducing food losses and waste, while avoiding unsustainable packaging;
2. Shifting to sustainable healthy diets, sourced from land, water and sea, and accessible to all EU citizens,
including the most deprived and vulnerable groups.
We welcome anyone with questions or similar interests to reach us out.
- Muesli production facility,
- Systematic research data on body nutritional needs,
anthropometric data and different diets,
- Life Algorithm created within the organisation that
can calculate our energy needs, match it with our
individual data and plot it against the ingredients of
our choosing to create a balanced muesli
- Public speaking
- Clinical Research skills
What skills, capabilities, facilities does your organisation
have that will be vital for this project?

Proposed Approach
Trucknet’s cloud-based platform can assist in delivering new tools and optimization mechanisms for passenger and
freight flows into and out of a port, facilitating port access and reducing traffic, including heavy vehicle trucks, to
and from the city. Transport is a serious climate issue and requires immediate action in several areas.
What part of the Scope do you want to address? Be specific. Smart and Sustainable Mobility
Trucknet’s online optimization technology allows our smart algorithms to search and find the most efficient routes,
which can be applied to sea ports and airports. Our solution significantly reduces GHG emissions and air pollutants
by minimizing the number of vehicles necessary for routine services, as well as for unexpected events.
We would like to contact partners who are establishing a consortium in which Trucknet’s solution could contribute,
through our expertise, to multi-modal access to and from ports, while reducing the number of vehicles in
movement within the boundaries of the port as well. Our partners are not limited to a specific type.
What skills, capabilities, facilities does your organisation have that
will be vital for this project?
Is your organisation academic, SME, big business, etc (and explain
the benefits to this project of whichever you are)
Trucknet is an advanced start-up company established with
a vision for promoting sustainable behaviour in the
transport sector. We are dedicated to reducing emissions
from heavy duty vehicles through optimization for various
types of transport.
We envisage being part of a project in which we can be
active members, even in a very specific role.
Our IT team is developing sophisticated solutions for
optimal route scheduling for transport companies and
would be available to assist at all times.
Experience
Trucknet, an Israeli start-up, has experience in carrying out pilots for cross-company optimization for freight,
logistics and transport companies. We are well aware of the urgency in Europe regarding reduction of GHG
emissions and improvement of energy efficiency measures. We have connections with a sea port for reducing trucks
and have begun examining how to take our technology into airports in order to improve access from the city as well
as efficiently scheduling traffic within the port.
Include your ability to attract the ‘Big Names’ in the sector (e.g. leading academics, major thought leaders)
Trucknet has presented its technology at the UNFCCC annual summits in side events, including an ITF
(International Transport Forum) at last year’s OECD side event.

Proposed Approach
Sustainable and smart mobility solutions will work as designed only when accompanied by appropriate
social and behavioural responses. Social and behavioural responses are highly heterogenous, varying by
socio-economics, occupation and work status, abilities and needs. Taking a people centric approach to
understanding these responses qualitatively as well as quantitatively, and therefore help design more
effective mobility solutions for the future.
Interested in exploring two specific contexts:
1. Emerging and future mobility services as perceived by vulnerable populations (older people,
children, people with disabilities)
2. Future of air travel demand, modelling passengers’ choice of air travel itineraries
Looking for academic and industrial partners in the areas of new mobility services and air travel.
- Behavioural underpinnings of demand (for
mobility, for energy, and other resources)
- Econometric models of demand for
understanding behaviour and for
predicting the impacts of policies and
future scenarios
- Agent and activity-based models of
demand for urban systems
Imperial College London is an Academic
organisation (HEI); Urban Systems Lab that I
lead is a research group within the Centre for
Transport Studies.
