AgriTech New Zealand

Agritech ITP Roadshow - Palmerston North
2021-02-04 14:00 - 16:00 (Pacific/Auckland)
New Zealand can lead the world with a globally competitive and connected agritech ecosystem. As we continue collaborating on the Agritech Industry Transformation Plan (ITP), we remain focussed on the real conditions of change and the collective opportunity for our sector.
Join David Downs, the ITP’s All of Government taskforce lead, who will facilitate the workshops with AgriTechNZ’s Kenneth Irons (Chair) and Brendan O’Connell (CEO).
These sessions will provide a progress update, plus insights into the next phase of the plan’s delivery. Project leaders will provide project updates and we will be discussing how you can engage with the work.
This is your opportunity to help make a difference, as we accelerate the impact of New Zealand’s agritech capability and reputation. We welcome your ongoing contribution and look forward to your participation.

Unlocking Agribusiness opportunities in Ireland
2021-01-27 09:00 - 10:30
AgriTechNZ, New Zealand Trade and Enterprise (NZTE) and the Ministry for Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT) warmly welcome you to a webinar on the export opportunities for New Zealand’s agritech in Ireland. There will be short presentations from New Zealand’s Ambassador to Ireland Brad Burgess and NZTE, as well as insights from Mark Ryder from LIC, David Kirby from Figured and Gillian Fullerton-Smith from Waikato Milking Systems – Kiwi companies that have made a success of entering Ireland’s agri sector.
The event follows the publication of a new report on opportunities for New Zealand agri-business companies ​in the Irish market, prepared by MFAT in cooperation with NZTE last year.
