About the Event
Welcome To The AVF 5th Annual Summit, 2021
Positioned at the convergence of the physical, the digital and the biological, Vertical Farming and other emerging disruptive food-making innovations constitute the new-food-system industries that stand right at the cutting edge of the Fourth Industrial Revolution – poised to transform our planetary food systems in the years and decades to come.
In official partnership with the German State of Bavaria through its Ministry of Economy and Ministry of Food, Agriculture & Forestry, AVF invites you to join global leaders, pioneers and stakeholders as we collectively remake the future of food — and our food systems.
