AgriTechNZ and MFAT: Panel and Networking Session Thursday 1 December 4.00-5.00pm NZ International Business Centre, Fieldays
Fieldays is a chance for exploration and networking with those in the primary sector. It is also an opportunity to be inspired and forge new connections that can support your career in New Zealand and globally.
According to the World Bank, around 4% of women in NZ are employed in the agriculture sector (2020). Over the last 30 years, that number has not increased higher than 8%. So, when you’re looking to connect with people with similar experiences or perspectives as yours – it can be hard to find!
AgriTechNZ and the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade are joining forces to host an event for women and other supporters attending Fieldays. We have a fantastic panel of inspirational speakers sharing their journey here in NZ and internationally, offering attendees valuable gems of inspiration, challenge, wisdom and insight to take back to their workplace and as they develop in their career.
Following the panel discussion, we encourage you to stay, network, drink and eat – meet someone you don’t know!
All welcome. Registration is free. Spaces are limited so please register to join.

Visit New Zealand’s Agritech Ecosystem

We will stop by a few government agencies you ought to know, some research organisations that have helped other organisations find their feet in the past and finish at the Innovation Arena so you can meet other NZ tech companies.
There will be a short time for Q&A but bring your business card – you’ll want to stay connected to these organisations.

UAVNZ Conference 2022
2022-11-14 09:00 - 16:00
This virtual conference brings together an interesting range of sessions and speakers to spur discussion and debate on the future of commercial uncrewed aviation in New Zealand.
The virtual conference will be hosted using the professional event management software, Whova. This is not your typical virtual conference as the platform facilitates networking activities, exhibitor stalls, live polling, and much more. We decided virtual was the best option because it keeps costs low for attendees and means that no travel is required. The morning plenary sessions explore the biggest challenges facing our sector and how we build a thriving uncrewed aviation sector in New Zealand. After a speed networking lunch, the afternoon breakout sessions provide a number of options for attendees, including a political panel and debate, sector specific discussion panels (e.g., forestry, agriculture, defence, photography/cinematography), and discussions on topical issues like advanced air mobility.

Agri-Food Tech Expo Asia 2022
2022-10-26 - 2022-10-28
How can we leverage technology to increase food production yield, improve food quality, reduce food waste, and promote sustainability in the Agri-food value chain?
The Agri-Food Tech Expo Asia (AFTEA, 26 – 28 October 2022), is an event where technology is the focus, spanning from upstream farming to food processing downstream.
This event will showcase innovations in modern agriculture, from vertical farming, greenhouse solutions, aquaculture, livestock technology, food preparation and bio-based packaging to other emerging technologies such as automation and robotics, artificial intelligence, IoT, smart sensors, drones, and big data. The potential of using these technologies is huge. In fact, the growing adoption of agriculture technologies has the potential to add up to US$65 billion to the ASEAN economy by 2025.
The exhibition aims to attract visitors from the Agri-food ecosystem – from farmers and food manufacturers looking for latest solutions, to wholesalers, retailers, food establishments, research institutes, consultancy think-tanks and tech investors. Visitors and hosted buyers can look forward to an event which combines both an exhibition and knowledge sharing seminars by experts, plus a Business Matchmaking program to establish business relationships between visitors/buyers and exhibitors.

In New Zealand, the Climate Change Commission has submitted to government its recommendations for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Across wider Oceania, climate change has had, and will continue to have, profound ramifications for the people living in the region.
The Summit will feature regional and international keynote speakers, breakout panels with domain experts, an exhibition showcasing current research being undertaken across the region, a startup hub with a pitch event to global investors, as well as extensive networking opportunities.
