WOMEN IN AGRIFOOD SUMMIT 2023

Balance for the future. Why food systems need balance and what does it really mean?

The agri-food sector is largely linked to many of the challenges that our planet is facing today. The innovation enabling all people to be involved is essential to a safe and sustainable agrifood system, which will benefit everyone. How to do that and how to find a balance for a better future for our food? 

Join us in this amazing discussion on the 1st of December in Vilnius and online during the event summarizing the 4th edition of the Empowering Women in Agrifood programme.

About the Event

Women in Agrifood Summit 2023 is not only the closure event of this year’s Empowering Women in Agrifood (EWA) programme edition. It is also an opportunity for all women interested in the agrifood, agri-tech, and business sectors to network: meet each other, exchange experiences, develop new strategies, discover personal potential, and contribute to making a global difference.

There will also be an opportunity for on-site participants to actively participate in workshops together with exceptional moderators who will inspire audiences to reflect together on the current challenges of the agri-food industry. The places for the workshop sessions are limited. Register now to secure your spot!
