International scientists, investors, directors, and advisors come together to share global initiatives and spur innovation.
Miami, Fl., October – This month’s Sustainability & Digitalization Leaders forum is the exclusive, comprehensive conversation every thought leader in agtech should be a part of. The SDL agenda demonstrates critical awareness of the most relevant sustainability issues across the agtech landscape, from regenerative agriculture to carbon sequestration and soil health; responsibly investing in the latest innovations to ensuring a traceable, transparent food system for consumers.
The Miami forum, 22-24 October, also sees the introduction of breakout workshops tackling issues in a collaborative, discussion-based format led by industry seniors. Delegates will be invited to drop in on the 30-minute sessions and engage with topics such as global warming in relation to food systems, and corporate strategy for urban agriculture.
