As the agrifood innovation world converges on evokeAG 2026, we’re teaming up with Farmers2Founders to help high-growth startups turn conversations into commercial traction across Australia and New Zealand.
Australia is a globally recognised testbed for agrifood innovation: large commercial farms, early adopters, diverse climates and strong sector investment make it a prime landing point for startups seeking traction.
Farmers2Founders is offering an Introductory Land x Launch Australia package for up to 15 international, high-growth agrifood tech startups who apply for the International Pitch Event. This personalised programme sets you up for the best possible start and establishes a framework for ongoing support.
What’s included:
- Pre-event (12 – 27 January 2026): 90-minute virtual Deep Dive to validate ANZ fit, identify priority customer segments, clarify regulatory needs, sharpen your pitch, and build a custom meetings plan.
- In-market (16 – 20 February 2026): support during evokeAG week with curated introductions to producers, corporates, R&D bodies, investors and agencies; on-the-ground guidance to maximise meetings; optional pitch refinement; invites to Farmers2Founders ecosystem events.
- Post-event (23 February – 31 March 2026): 2–3 x 1:1 sessions with market-entry advisors, support to scope pilots/trials, TEKFARM exposure and optional market-rep/fractional executive services.
