Plenary Speakers:
Welcome to the Global Agri & Food Safety Congress 2026, a
premier international forum where thought leaders, researchers, policymakers,
and industry innovators come together to shape the future of agriculture and
food safety.
This Congress offers a unique opportunity to discover
ground-breaking research, engage with cutting-edge scientific and technological
advances, and explore practical innovations that are redefining how food is
produced, protected, and delivered across global value chains. From sustainable
farming systems and precision agriculture to food quality assurance, regulatory
frameworks, and risk management, the program is designed to address the most
pressing challenges facing the agri-food sector today. Through keynote
presentations, technical sessions, panel discussions, and networking
opportunities, participants will gain insights that inform decision-making and
drive meaningful change.
Beyond knowledge sharing, the Congress functions as a catalyst for
high-impact collaboration. It brings together leading experts to foster
cross-disciplinary dialogue and partnerships that accelerate the translation of
research into real-world solutions. Through one of these engagements, I, despite
being new to the smart farming domain, successfully established a significant
partnership with a government body to advance my startup’s work in smart
farming and new farmland development.
We are honored to welcome you to this global gathering and look
forward to your contributions as we work together to advance safer, more
resilient, and more sustainable agri-food systems for the future.
With regards,
