The Global AgInvesting flagship conference in April 2013 features an expanded agenda and new AgTech Investment Summit. This fifth annual conference is expected to be the largest agriculture investment event ever held, with institutional investors, farm and fund managers and key industry stakeholders gathering for a comprehensive overview of farmland investment opportunities, risks and return profiles. Since its inception in 2009, Global AgInvesting (GAI) has been the premier agriculture investment conference series, hosting nearly 4,000 attendees worldwide at annual events in New York, London and Singapore, where attendance has doubled year-on-year at each event. The expanded agenda at Global AgInvesting New York includes peripheral themes such as water theme investments, aquaculture and global fisheries, dairy and livestock, and venture capital, all of which will complement panel discussions addressing farmland opportunities across all major production regions. To delve deeper into the topic of innovations and investment opportunities in new technologies, GAI is launching the first AgTech Investment Summit in conjunction with the main conference.
