Description

An exlusive event for current Agri-Tech East Members only.

Agri-Tech East’s membership now boasts over 100 organisations which between them have a wealth of expertise, knowledge and access to new technologies and services. We’d like to help you make the most of your membership, by joining us for an opportunity to meet others in the network, and hopefully find some solutions to your issues, learn some new ideas, and meet new contacts, customers and collaborators.

A series of very short introductions to (and by) everyone in the network will be followed by plenty of opportunity for structured networking and discussions with farmers and growers, technology developers, commercial and technical service providers and entrepreneurs.

Please come prepared to briefly introduce yourself, your business or organisation, and some examples of any new technologies, innovations (even if you think they don’t exist!), skills or people you would like to know about. In exchange, please have an idea of what you could offer that might be of interest to others – it might be industry insights, access to trial facilities, knowledge about funding and grants, or some new research or technology.

If you have them, do feel free to bring some printed material, pop ups, or other information about your organisation that you’d like to use to help other people to understand more about what you can offer and what you’d like in exchange.

We guarantee you’ll meet some really interesting new people who might just make a difference to your business, inform your research project or change your thinking.
