- The European project showcases its sustainable solutions to new generations at Finnova headquarters.
Brussels, March 27, 2025 – The Finnova Foundation headquarters in Brussels today hosted the Young People in Training Meeting, a key event for emerging talent in Europe. During the event, attendees learned about innovative projects funded by the European Union in areas such as sustainability, ecological transition, and agricultural innovation.
One of the key projects has been LIFE NextFUMIGREEN, an initiative developing natural fumigants based on plant extracts to combat pests in horticultural crops in a more sustainable manner. With this approach, the project seeks to reduce the use of chemical pesticides, promoting biodiversity and ensuring greater food security.
