Our projects are at the interface between research and the field application of new solutions by beekeepers. In constant dialogue with the beekeepers, we represent a multidisciplinary source of knowledge and a set of innovations aimed at supporting them in their daily lives. Our results allow us to provide answers to societal questions and current challenges concerning beekeeping and pollination.

Let’s talk beekeeping!
