Australia's global niche for agriculture and food biotechnology
The 2014 Agriculture & Food Biotechnology Symposium will explore how Australia’s food and agri-bio industry can secure its future as a niche provider of technology, services and products.
The theme of the symposium, ‘Where is Australia’s Global Niche?’, brings focus to the developments in food and agricultural biotechnology that will significantly boost Australia’s economic performance.
The event highlights how Australian food and agricultural companies can capitalise on biotechnology innovations by exploring:
- The macroeconomics of influencing Australia’s agri-bio industry
- Technological advances that will transform livestock, horticulture and cropping industries
- How to navigate regulatory and legal barriers
- Emerging and enabling biotechnologies
Held as part of the 2014 AusBiotech National Conference, the two-day event will be held over Thursday 30 and Friday 31 October at the Gold Coast Convention & Exhibition Centre. The program is available here. To register, click here.
