This event brings together key stakeholders to discuss the future of EU agriculture and the food sector in the context of growing economic pressures, environmental challenges, and evolving consumer demands. The plenary session will set the stage by examining how the EU can secure a resilient, sustainable, and competitive agricultural system that supports farmers and rural communities, with a keynote speech by Commissioner Christophe Hansen.
The programme continues with a series of expert panels addressing critical issues across the agri-food chain — from enhancing food labelling for consumer transparency, to adapting regulation for emerging technologies like new genomic techniques. Sessions will also explore strategies for maintaining global competitiveness, and driving the transition toward a climate-neutral agri-food sector.
