Are you interested in becoming a conference partner?
|
The transition towards biodiversity-friendly and resilient agri-food systems requires collaboration across the value chain. The conference brings together businesses, farmers, policymakers, researchers, standard-setting organisations and civil society to discuss practical solutions for biodiversity implementation.
|
As a conference partner, organisations become part of a constructive, multi-stakeholder dialogue focused on real-world challenges, emerging expectations and practical approaches to implementation. The partnership provides opportunities to engage with key stakeholders, exchange experiences, strengthen relationships and explore future collaborations across the European agri-food sector.
