ValueLinks 2.0

Increasing the competitiveness of agricultural and food value chains

5 days training, from Monday June 22 to Friday June 26 in Rüdesheim am Rhein

Registration open until Monday June 1st, 2015

The training addresses all actors engaged in value chain development – government and public administration as well as private companies and SME advisors.

The ValueLinks approach aims to enhance the understanding for value chains and their development as a market-driven structural change of the economy. Hence, the training concentrates on linking the business logic with the development logic in search for opportunities and entry points instead of problems and obstacles. The methodology can be applied to different subsectors, from agriculture and food processing to manufacturing and industries. Participants will experience the value chain approach at different stages of development and in combination with other approaches, e.g. regional development or natural resource management. The International ValueLinks Association e.V. has introduced the standardized visual language, which is used in the training.
