Mission e Vision

A combination of phenomena now make agriculture a critical, fast-moving sector, which is associated with an extensive and complex value chain we call agribusiness. 

At a time when European policies are increasingly addressing sustainability in the industry and global competition is becoming more intense, the need for alternative solutions in the management of supply chains and individual companies, as well as in investments, becomes crucial to face a future full of challenges and business opportunities. 

With an extensive team of faculty and staff, the Invernizzi AGRI Lab stands as a center of excellence for study and innovation in the food and farming sector. Our mission is to support the sustainable and competitive transformation of the food and farming sector by providing innovative solutions for supply chain, business and investment management. 

We operate with an integrated approach, combining scientific methodologies and practical solutions, to anticipate the rapid changes dictated by sustainability policies and increasing global competition.
