As we embark on this exciting journey,
I am thrilled to introduce you to the
dynamic world of agri-food technology.
The agri-food industry in Singapore defies
limitations imposed by its scarce natural
resources. Instead, it serves as an open door
to meet the high demand for nutritious food
unprecedentedly. Technological advancements,
forward-thinking government initiatives,
accelerator funding, and food science research
and development have fuelled innovation,
scaling up productivity, and revolutionising the
industry.
Within this context, the Agri-Food Tech Expo
Asia (AFTEA) emerges as more than an event;
it’s a convergence of visionaries, innovators, and
change-makers. In a world where sustainability,
food security, and innovation are paramount,
AFTEA provides a platform for dialogue,
collaboration, and transformation.
Returning after two successful editions, AFTEA
2024 will highlight cutting-edge advancements,
latest innovative offerings for Novel Food
Technology, Urban Farming, Alternative Proteins,
Aquaculture, Food Safety & Sustainability,
Technological Solutions and more, from global
suppliers, corporates, start-ups, and institutes.
Step into a “living lab”— a curated space where
collaborative projects that shape the future of
agri-food technology come to life.
Supported by the Asia-Pacific Society for
Cellular Agriculture (APAC-SCA), the Cultivated
Meat Pavilion inspires learning, deepens
understanding, and accelerates the adoption
of transformative solutions. The pavilion is the
only platform capitalising Singapore as the
springboard to access Asia’s high potential
markets in agri-food and foodtech sectors,
connecting the entire community, from local
and global agribusinesses, including farmers
and growers, manufacturers, technology
solution providers, MNCs, start-ups, investors,
wholesalers, and more.
AFTEA 2024 will also host a contingent of
returning pavilions, from The Netherlands,
Singapore, Spain, Germany, and France. In
addition, we welcome new participation from
Japan, Israel, and Sweden, with more in the
making.
Amidst the dynamic growth of the global
agri-tech and agri-food industry, start-ups
are at the forefront, driving innovation with
groundbreaking technologies and solutions.
AFTEA provides a vital platform for these startups to scale their ventures, exchange knowledge
and resources, and connect with the broader
agribusiness community through the Founder’s
Hub.
Organised as a cornerstone of AFTEA, the
Sandbox facilitates knowledge exchange
and collaboration within the agri-food tech
ecosystem. This unique platform presents a free-to-attend knowledge sessions, where corporates
and industry organisations can showcase and
discuss the latest advancements and trends in
agricultural and food technology solutions.
By providing a space for sharing best practices
and promoting the adoption of cutting-edge
technologies and sustainable methods, AFTEA
will drive progress and advancement in the agri-food industry.
As we flip through the pages of this directory,
let us celebrate innovation, resilience, and
collaboration. Whether you’re a seasoned
industry veteran or a curious newcomer, AFTEA
invites you to explore, connect, and contribute.
We look forward to welcoming you to AFTEA
2024 this November!
