Digital innovation accelerated “unevenly” in global food (Investing.com)

Investing.com (Spain) published an article on some of the findings of the 2021 Global Food Policy Report. According to the Report, digital innovations have accelerated during the pandemic in the world of food, although it is necessary to reduce the gap between large multinationals and small and medium-sized companies. At the same time, trends have accelerated that have allowed businesses to better adapt to changes, such as the growth of logistics and delivery companies, and the use of digital platforms, according to that research center. Johan Swinnen, director general and one of the main authors of the GFPR emphasizes to Efe that large multinationals, endowed with more capital and knowledge, “have had it easier to use these innovations and face COVID-19”, especially in middle- and high-income countries.
