Submitted by Nicolas Machado on 12 February 2020

In December 2019, ToasterLAB, Vitagora’s acceleration program, and BFFood (Business Factory Food), the accelerator of the Spanish cluster Clúster Alimentario de Galicia (Clusaga), signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).

The aim of this MoU is to increase the international visibility of each of the two acceleration programs, to exchange good practices and experiences, and to participate in the events associated with each program.

"Vitagora has worked closely with Clusaga for many years, notably for European innovation projects or international missions", explains Claire Van Overstraeten, manager of the ToasterLAB program. "Our two organizations each having their acceleration program, it seemed obvious to work in good intelligence on the issue of support for innovative start-ups as well. "
