Agritech Unleashed

An event series showcasing how our land
and people are shaping
Aotearoa’s agritech future.

Agritech Unleashed is a series of regionally distributed experiences that will celebrate and explore the unique characteristics of each region’s agritech ecosystem. Every region has distinct agricultural priorities, challenges, stakeholders, and infrastructure, which influence the adoption, interoperability, and scaling of agritech innovations.

We’re creating a platform for meaningful conversations to:

  • highlight unique regional strengths
  • gain insights by showcasing innovations in their natural environments
  • strengthen industry connections to foster collaboration
  • connect local solutions to national and global opportunities

To nourish the changes that will result in a more significant impact of agritech, we must explore how these connected local actions can evolve into larger systems of influence. The Agritech Unleashed series will catalyse emerging practices by helping to identify, connect, refine, and scale agritech innovations that are locally grounded and more widely interconnected nationally and globally.

In 2026 we will be holding three events in the Agritech Unleashed Series that will span both the North and South Islands of Aotearoa.
