We would like to invite you to join an online workshop - Developing New UK / Canada AgriFood Partnerships.

Innovate UK research strongly suggests there are opportunities for developing international R&D partnerships and business opportunities between Canada and the UK in the AgriFood sector.

The Canadian High Commission, Innovate UK (supported by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy), our partners and affiliated organisations will be convening a workshop to look at developing those opportunities. In particular, we are looking at:

Establishing bi-lateral partnerships between the UK and Canadian AgriFood sector to enhance collaboration opportunities for mutual benefit,
Developing priority themes for industry-led research that will address challenges facing the sector towards 2030,
Developing a roadmap that details key actions to meet those challenges, with recommendations for collaborative research, timelines and funding requirements.

The workshop will convene specialists and experts in the field of AgriFood from Canada and the UK.

We would like you and your organisation to be part of this conversation, as we look to build and develop partnerships and relationships between the UK and Canada.

If you would like to attend, please accept this invitation. We will send you joining details and instructions nearer the time.

Diary Date: In addition to the online workshop, we are planning a two-day event to be held in London on September 6th & 7th. Attendees from Canada are particularly welcome. Numbers are limited for this event and will be organised by invitation. Please hold the date if you would like to attend.
