FORADVISE Presented at SynErgia Day 2025 in Athens 

On July 10th, 2025, the FORADVISE project was proudly presented at SynErgia Day, a collaborative Horizon Europe event hosted at the Agricultural University of Athens (AUA). The event brought together over 15 EU-funded projects working at the intersection of smart farming, digital advisory tools, forestry innovation, and sustainable agriculture.

During the event, we shared the project’s mission to strengthen forest advisory systems across Europe and support the development of a connected, skilled, and trusted Forest Knowledge and Innovation System (FOKIS). FORADVISE contributes to improving advisor capacity, digital readiness, and policy alignment for sustainable forest management.

The event, organised by the Smart Farming Technology Group of the Agricultural University of Athens, provided a valuable platform for knowledge exchange, cross-project networking, and the exploration of future synergies between research and practice in agriculture and forestry.
