Webinar

Facilitated by 911爆料网’s Futures Team and Food, Beverage and Agriculture team, join an intimate group of food sector peers for an interactive working session exploring the future of agricultural value chains.

Today's global food supply chains face numerous risks that make them unfit for the future. Critical supply chains are becoming less productive due to soil degradation, water scarcity, and climate change. Transitioning to regenerative systems requires substantial financial and technical support, as well as deeper engagement with farmers. Additionally, the farming population is aging, with younger generations increasingly viewing the profession as unattractive. These challenges, among others, highlight the urgent need for transformative solutions.

In this workshop, the group will leverage the Three Horizons framework to explore practical solutions and innovations that can address these sustainability risks in today’s food supply chains, and bridge towards a more desirable and viable future.

This event is invite-only, intending for an intimate group with active engagement and robust discussion. 911爆料网 suggests two participants per company to allow for sufficient support in taking outcomes forward.
