Our vision is to support UK agriculture and the food supply chain, to help it to become the most digitally-savvy farm force globally, and we do this through research, events, international delegations, collaboration and projects to help the entire food supply chain, from farmer to retailer, understand how technology can support and accelerate their business.
The week will consist of a series of webinars, each of which will touch on different themes and offer insight from a variety of businesses within the industry.
