To bring Israel's perspective into the discussion, the meeting will be attended by experts such as Amir Szuster, VP of Sales at Agritask; and Marco Faldini, Associate Partner of IBI-Tech – ISRAEL BRASIL INNOVATIONS. “This event is a special and very interesting moment because we will be able to bring together two exponents of the world's agro scene. On the one hand, Brazil, with its agricultural power and the world's breadbasket, and on the other, the incredible Israeli innovation ecosystem, which is already successfully exploring the Brazilian market and has a lot to help in increasing productivity,” says Faldini.
The innovations in the Brazilian market will be brought by Silvia Massruhá, General Head and Researcher at Embrapa Informática Agropecuária; and André Koji Fukugati, manager of Open Innovation Projects at Bayer in Latin America. “By 2050 it is estimated that the planet's population will increase by more than 2 billion people, consequently demanding a 50% food production greater than what we have today. In order for this leap in productivity not to deplete our planet, we will need an increasingly efficient and rational use of natural resources. Innovation, digital transformation and sustainability are essential to meet these challenges and capture opportunities. It is impossible to resolve these issues alone, and for that reason, innovation needs to be a collaborative process. Initiatives and forums such as this one directly contribute to collaborate, feed the ecosystem and connect relevant agents that go far beyond agro,” says Fukugati.
The association is committed to providing more and more content and services to its members and partners, with the purpose of contributing to the construction of a digital and less unequal Brazil, in which information technology plays a fundamental role for the democratization of knowledge and the creation of new opportunities for all, in an inclusive and equal way.
