About AgTech World Congress 2026

Agriculture has transformed in various ways from subsistence to affluence, from traditional to technological, from undefined to precise, and the pace has rapidly accelerated in the last one decade with the globalization and technological advancement.

Today, Agriculture stands at a crossroads. On one side lies the urgency to feed a growing global population amid climate stress and resource scarcity. On the other, an unprecedented opportunity exists to reshape how we grow food using the power of innovation, technology integration and global collaboration. AgTech World Conclave and Expo 2026 is born from this very intersection.

Set to take place from 10-11 March 2026, the conclave is not just another industry gathering but a movement, bringing innovators, industry, entrepreneurs, startups, practitioners and policy makers on one platform. A movement to reimagine agriculture not only as a means of livelihood but as a forward-looking, high-impact sector that holds the key to global sustainability and rural prosperity.

Hosted by the Indian Chamber of Food and Agriculture (ICFA), this global conclave and expo will serve as a meeting ground for those who believe agriculture can, and must, evolve—responsibly, inclusively, and boldly through the power of innovations and technologies, and policies and partnerships. What makes this platform different is its purpose-driven design. This is where the national priorities and global investment and partnerships unite to spark tangible progress.

AgTech World Expo 2026 — Showcasing the Future of Agriculture

In parallel with the AgTech World Congress, the AgTech World Expo 2026 will feature a live display of technologies, innovations, and business opportunities across the agri-food sector. The Expo will bring together leading exhibitors, innovators, startups, and industry stakeholders, with many companies showcasing their latest products, solutions, and advancements in digital agriculture, automation, farm mechanization, processing, packaging, precision farming, and smart irrigation. The Expo aims to serve as a collaborative platform for networking, partnerships, and knowledge exchange among stakeholders driving innovation and sustainable growth in agriculture.

Banglore - The Host City!

Banglore takes pride in being the capital of the country for many dynasties in the last 1000 years. It is in fact a city wrapped in legends and rich history, where time flows differently, and where every moment becomes a moment of history. A vibrant melting pot, it encapsulates two very different worlds, the 'old' and the 'new', each representing delectably different experiences. New Delhi, being the capital of India, has significant political, diplomatic and developmental display. Delhi is sprinkled with glittering gems like: captivating ancient monuments, magnificent museums, a vivacious performing-arts scene and some of the subcontinent's yummiest places to eat. Delhi blends within its folds the great cultural variety of India. Delhi is not just a name, it is a feeling. Every inch of land in Delhi has an important history buried under and every 500 meters has some significant cultural or historic work. Come experience it....
