The Future Food Factory OWL is an ERDF-funded project establishing a cutting-edge food production research facility at the Innovation Campus Lemgo.
Combining Industry 4.0 and food technology, it serves as a hub for developing and testing new technologies, products, and processes—bringing together expertise in automation, sensory technology, data processing, and more.
Together with partner companies, the hosting institutes institute for life science technologies (ILT.NRW) and institute industrial IT (inIT) develop, research and demonstrate innovative food technologies and individual solutions. They form the basis for improving quality, safety, sustainability and cost-effectiveness of food production. This takes place independently of day-to-day operations and thus provides the ideal breeding ground for creative approaches and solutions.
A Start-Up Space offers employees and students space and expert support to bring their own ideas and inventions to market maturity with their own start-up project. Through training courses, seminars, individual workshops and lectures, Future Food Factory OWL provides further access to research expertise in the field of the digital transformation of the food industry.
