“Cultivating a better world” is the central message of Agri Innovation Expo 2026, a two-day event designed to bring agricultural research closer to society and the market.

The Agricultural University of Athens will host the expo on September 24 and 25 in the courtyard of its Agricultural Museum. The event aims to bring together the university community, businesses, producers’ organisations, investors and others interested in the future of agri-food and innovation.

Research teams, laboratories, spin-offs and innovative initiatives from the university will present technologies, applications and research results addressing agriculture, agri-food production, sustainable development and environmental protection. Visitors will be able to see artificial intelligence applications for the primary sector, precision-farming technologies, biotechnology and food-technology solutions, and new approaches to crop management.

The exhibition will also trace how a research idea can move from the laboratory to the market. The programme includes thematic discussions and networking activities intended to connect researchers with companies, investors, organisations and public institutions.

Organisers will focus on using university research, developing partnerships and strengthening technology transfer. The stated aim is to build a stronger innovation ecosystem for the agri-food sector.

The official opening will take place on Thursday, September 24, with representatives of the state, academia, business and the financial sector. The expo is aimed at researchers, students, young scientists, agri-food businesses and professionals, producers, cooperatives, investors, public administrators and anyone interested in innovation, sustainable development and the future of Greek agri-food production.
