The organizers will soon be rolling-out the 2018 agenda following their research and consultation with the various Departments of Agriculture in key African countries and international innovators across the private sector.

Here is a glimpse of the exciting topics that will be covered this year:

The event is a platform where international experiences and ideas are shared, influencing opportunities and overcoming barriers to the growth of the CEA (controlled environment agriculture) market.
