Everything IoT - Food and Agriculture Technology Forum
Event Information
Description
Showcasing the best Food and Agriculture startups in Australia using AI and IoT technologies
Corporates executives, investors and entrepreneurs will gain insights and connections with startup founders pushing the boundaries of Agtech innovation in Australia.
Agriculture is almost universally agreed to be one of the sectors where Australia can take a lead in technology innovation and gain competitive advantage. With the goal to double agricultural output by 2030, sensors and data analytics capabilities are expected to be deployed in every step of the value chain.
The Agriculture Tech Forum provides an in-depth examination of the state of agtech in Australia and globally, drawing upon professional experiences of keynote speakers and panellists. This year the Forum is focused on showcasing Australian startup innovation in Agtech.
While in previous years we discussed future projections and potential for startups in the food and agriculture space, this year is all about sharing what is already being implemented.The best startups will get the chance to show and demonstrate their successes with the common purpose of exploring challenges and opportunities in scaling globally.
The forum is limited to 100 people and as always we expect to have a good representation of our key stakeholders being, corporate executives, entrepreneurs, investors, Government representatives and academia.
The Forum will be held on Thursday 27 June from 5:30pm-9:00pm at Stone and Chalk at lvl. 4, 11 York Street, Sydney.
