We are excited to host a conference focused on practical solutions for the agro-food sector's challenges. This hybrid event will unite experts, including farm managers, crop scientists, vertical farming specialists, food producers, and AgriTech innovators, to discuss digitalization, data-driven decision-making, productivity, food quality, and transparency in agrifood supply chains. Professionals from global brands will share knowledge and insights on the latest trends and innovations in agribusiness.
Main Themes Highlighted at This Summit:
Next-Gen Agribusiness Models
The next-generation agribusiness model is increasingly focused on integrating technology and sustainability to meet the demands of urban populations while minimizing environmental impact. Urban farming is at the heart of this model, transforming how food is produced, distributed, and consumed in cities.
At the conference, participants will have the opportunity to learn from esteemed experts representing xFarm Technologies, DakAkker Rooftopfarm, and Hexagro on new tech and urban agricultural frameworks aimed at empowering communities through hyperlocal food sources.
Harvesting the Power of Digital Agriculture
Digital agriculture is reshaping the agribusiness landscape by embedding data, connectivity, and predictive analytics into farming practices, making the agricultural ecosystem more adaptable, sustainable, and efficient. Whether through high-tech vertical farms or field-based regenerative agriculture, digital tools are essential to future-proofing the food supply and meeting the demands of a growing, urbanizing population.
This forum will showcase how leading organizations like The African Association for Vertical Farming (AAVF), Chambers Farms, Bayer Crop Science, and xarvio® are bringing digital systems together to create an intelligent ecosystem where data flows between tools, allowing farmers to operate sustainably and transparently.
The Sustainable Future of Large-Scale Farming
A sustainable global food supply depends on practices that improve environmental health, boost productivity, and enhance climate resilience. This is particularly urgent in Europe which is facing challenges from extreme weather and water scarcity, especially in the south. The European Environment Agency reports that climate change is already impacting crop yields, with projections suggesting that, under high-emission scenarios, yields of essential non-irrigated crops like wheat and maize could fall by up to 50% in southern Europe by 2050, highlighting the necessity for climate-adaptive farming.
This summit will explore how industry leaders like Barilla G. e R. Fratelli, Syngenta Group, Mars, Rijk Zwaan, Agreena, Royal Agrifirm Group, and Strategy& (part of the PwC network) are developing practices that build soil health, improve resilience to climate change, and secure food supplies. By integrating regenerative agriculture, carbon sequestration, and agroecology, large-scale farms can remain productive and profitable while significantly reducing their environmental footprint.
For experts navigating current and future challenges in the agribusiness and food industry, the 2nd Annual Agribusiness & Food Summit is an essential event, offering strategic insights and exceptional networking opportunities.
