Regenerative Agriculture Series

ABOUT THE SERIES

A complete remodeling of the structure of our current global agricultural model is necessary to ensure the population remains fed and to safeguard economic prosperity. This transformation is only feasible through the combined participation of all stakeholders. A new strategy of pre-competitive collaborative action from multiple actors will be key to unlocking change and driving impact at scale.

The Regenerative Agriculture Series was created to bring together stakeholders from across the entire food and textiles supply chain and act as a neutral platform to enable open, constructive, and educational discussions to further progress the transition to regenerative practices. We believe everyone deserves a seat at the table and that the best way to effectively bring about change is through peer-to-peer sharing, partnership, and collaboration.

Bringing together thousands of key players across three global events, webinars, and roundtables, the series aims to explore the challenges and opportunities in the transition to regenerative practices.

WHO YOU'LL MEET

I met several very interesting people during the networking sessions (which ended up being the most valuable part of the event) and we are already following up to see about trialing some very innovative and simple technology (both field practices and digital tracking and communication tools) in small-scale coffee farmer regions.

MNCs/ Independent F&B

What our attendees say

The diversity of actors within the agri value chain was a fantastic asset to understanding farm-to-fork! It was great to have both "sides" of the regenerative agriculture sector. By that I mean, those who are the big input producers and those who believe organic and no synthetic inputs are the way forward to have professional discussions in a safe environment.
