The World Agri-Tech Innovation Summit in San Francisco will be focused on commercializing solutions for climate-resilient Ag. It brings together global leaders and pioneering businesses dedicated to advancing and investing in technologies to build a stronger, fit for future agri-food supply chain. Focused on innovation at the nexus of climate-water-energy and food, expert panels will analyze the potential of next generation crop protection and crop nutrition, robotics, precision ag and the convergence of satellites, sensors, and agri-finance in the transition to climate-smart farming.

With an emphasis on harnessing nature-based solutions to meet climate commitments, and successful paths for commercializing biological inputs, next-generation breeding, AI and automation, an outstanding speaking faculty uncovers the innovations and investment propelling new value creation in this sector.

Come and meet our team to understand more about how we work with agri-tech clients to embrace and scale regenerative agriculture practices, accurately measure soil carbon and nutrient levels, and unlock the environmental benefits of biologicals in a cost-effective manner.

Speaking Session: Advancing Real-Time Decision Agility: Equipment, Engineering and Data Insights in Agriculture​

• Where are we on the path to developing real-time decision ag? What possibilities exist today, and how are they contributing to efficiency, sustainability and return on investment?​
• What collaborative efforts are emerging to integrate data insights, equipment and engineering in the field, and what impact is this having on commercial success? What regulatory factors are influencing these partnerships, and where is there room for more collaborations to simplify the grower experience?​
• What broader ripple effects can we anticipate from data-driven and technological improvements in agriculture? How will these advancements impact long-term shifts in industry dynamics, practices, and economics?​
• What new business models will emerge for example around carbon credits and use of crop protection in the field? How is the value chain looking to capture value for its customers?​
