Globally renowned, World Agri-Tech Innovation Summits draw together growers, agribusinesses, technology providers, start-ups and investors to identify solutions with the potential to build a more sustainable, resilient food production system – and to forge the partnerships to bring these solutions to market.
Hosted alongside COP8, the summit in Dubai presents a powerful platform to bring international attention on the innovation and investment opportunities in the most climate-stressed regions of the world.
