Fieldays, the leading event in the Southern Hemisphere’s agricultural calendar, is set once again to offer unparalleled opportunities for both local and international businesses.

The New Zealand International Business Centre (NZIBC), located at the heart of the event, will serve as a central point for international visitors, exhibitors, delegates, and VIPs,
to build connections in a bid to drive economic growth in the industry in New Zealand and overseas.

“We welcome all participants, and we continue our commitment to provide a platform to facilitate meaningful conversations and introductions that support us in playing a vital part in driving industry advancement,” says New Zealand National Fieldays Society, CEO Peter Nation.

 “Fieldays presents a unique global platform for New Zealand agritech, and our team will be available to assist international visitors in finding the solutions and expertise they seek,” says Richard Cotman, NZTE’s Sector Lead - Manufacturing, Technology and Services.  

“We are also providing New Zealand exhibitors and businesses with the opportunity to explore global agritech opportunities, including markets where NZ solutions are highly regarded and in demand. 

International visitors can connect with New Zealand’s food and fibre producers exhibiting at Fieldays, opening doors to potential export ventures and market expansions.

A visit to the Fieldays Innovation Hub, will provide business visitors the chance to be inspired by the leadership of Kiwis across the primary industries, and to explore partnerships
with individuals and companies that are shaking things up with their groundbreaking ideas and products.

The NZIBC will facilitate B2B meetings, leveraging the expertise of its supporters and government agencies to navigate regulatory landscapes and access incentives and support mechanisms. Educational seminars will provide insights into the latest agricultural trends and developments, empowering attendees to apply new knowledge to practices in their respective markets.
