COMMONSource
A vision and platform for all stakeholders in regional food systems
A network-for-networks infrastructure for food regions
Developing business and innovation networks, and enabling co-creation through gamification
Cities leading food production is building partnerships for the realisation of a learning business ecosystem, which fuels the current and future development of robust, regional and regenerative food systems in cities and regions, in the EU and the world at large.
To make this happen we are building the bridge between the current system and the emerging markets, onboarding networks and facilitating the process of inspiration, co-creation and co-development.
We’re combining the activities and expertise of all networks and partners. This provides a license to operate, we learn from each other and together we create the food systems for the future.
The roll out process of Cities leading food production is currently active in Amsterdam, Utrecht and Copenhagen.
