[[File:TOPhomepage.png|350px|right]] [http://www.top-bv.nl/ TOP b.v.] is an innovative service provider in the area of product development (food design) and equipment- and processdevelopment. The main specialism of TOP lays in between the development of new (processing)technologies and using these technologies to make new enviromental friendly, tasty and healthy food products. TOP works for clients all over the world. The combination of food technologists, microbiologists, food designers, mechanical engineers, chemical processtechnologists and ICT workers has led to many innovations. Nowadays there are more than 20 TOPpers working together. Our activities are Food Design, Process Development & Innovation Management. TOP b.v. works for the SME food industry and technology suppliers and is founded by Bert Tournois, [[Frank Giezen]] and [[Wouter de Heij]]. The main objective of TOP b.v. is the increase in sales and profit by developing new innovations and introducing these with and at our clients. Also the [[Shelf life | Quality- and shelf life improvement]] of food is our first priority. For this we use the newest scientific and technological insights, and combine these with practical experience and a high dose of creativity. We have a lot of work in the vegetable and fruit processing industry. At TOP b.v. research and development is a way to get innovation and not a goal on its own. TOP b.v. works WITH SME's. Fast, professional and reasonably priced. Innovation is 'doing' in practise. == Services TOP b.v. == * '''[[Food_Design_%26_FoodLab | Food Design]]''' - TOP creates new concepts, recipes and packaging concepts. Besides we take care of the complete development from the initial idea to a market introduction. * '''[[Process Development]]''' - TOP develops new technologies (up to pilot and/or 0-series) and designs complete food factories (including creating zoning, hygienic design, budget and management). * '''[[Innovation Management]]''' - The route to the market for a new technology or a new product is a long one. How do you start, how to finance your innovation and how to cooperate with partners. ==Vision, where is TOP going?== In the first five years of its existence TOP worked following a clear strategy, of which mild processing, mild preservation and protein alternatives were part. [[De strategie 2011-2016]] is conceived in the autumn of 2011 and shared with the team early 2012. TOP stays focussed on new technology platforms including the themes mild-sterilisation and [[Wastestreams_%26_Cascading | wastestream processing and cascading]]. This strategy is drafted after a solid analysis regarding the expected future of our society. Parallel to this strategie 2011-2016 we keep working on the development of applications for the technology platforms that we have already developed. == TOP b.v. and Social Media == We like to keep talking with our relations but also with other stakeholders in the agrofood domain.
