First up and most interesting me as a grantee, impact stories showcasing exceptional contributions from NGI innovators featuring @NGIZero.
@EC_NGI funded over 1,000 projects in the last few years.
80% of grantees have not received funded from any other EU program, meaning it found a meaningful niche.
12–15 months to first results compared to 5 years for other Horizon programs.
Alexandre Garel presenting @openfoodfacts, the Wikipedia or Open Street Map of nutrition facts.
This is quite expensive data to license from commercial vendors. Great to have thousands of people contributing to open data freely available as an alternative.
Recently added environmental impact score of foods. Working on improving search capabilities.
New project: Open *Product* Facts for documenting components of any type of product.
@Jeremiah Oh, cool, I'd been waiting for something not specific to food :)
