Rethink Events is the host of the renowned World Agri-Tech Innovation Summit, taking place since 2013 in London, San Francisco and São Paulo.
Launched in the Middle East for the first time in 2023, the summit focussed international attention on the innovation and investment opportunities in the most climate-stressed regions of the world.
The summit draws together growers, agribusinesses, technology providers, start-ups and investors to identify solutions with the potential to build a more sustainable, resilient food production system – and to forge the partnerships to bring these solutions to market.
