EPICENTRE Project, Success Story | Seedsight

In the dynamic world of agri-tech, innovation is often the key to sustainability, efficiency, and safety. One of the standout examples from the latest edition of the EPICENTRE European program is Seedsight, a pioneering solution making waves in the grain and cereal industry.

Seedsight has reached the final phase of the program, marking a significant milestone in its journey. At its core, the company’s technology focuses on quality assessment of grains and cereals—evaluating not just productivity, but also safety and overall quality.

Paulo Santos, representing Seedsight, explained their mission: to create a faster path to industrialization and monetization while expanding the number of pilots and building strong corporate partnerships. This forward-looking approach doesn’t just aim at product refinement—it seeks to accelerate adoption across the industry.

Through the EPICENTRE program, Seedsight benefited from intensive mentoring and pitch preparation, fine-tuning their strategy and gaining valuable insights on recruitment and fundraising. Over the next five months, their focus is clear:

  • Deploying their technology with existing partners.
  • Expanding their database of “optical fingerprints” of grains—an advanced dataset that makes their assessments more robust and broadly applicable.
  • Scaling pilot projects to validate and refine their solution.

By combining cutting-edge optical analysis with a data-driven approach, Seedsight is positioning itself as a game-changer in agricultural quality control. Their work not only helps producers and processors ensure safety and efficiency, but also supports the broader shift toward more sustainable and transparent food supply chains.

Innovations like these don’t just improve the way we measure grain quality; they redefine the future of agri-tech itself.
