Breakthrough Stories from the Next Generation of Food and Agriculture leaders

Tuesday 6 October 2026 11:45 AM – 12:30 PM Ballroom 1

About this session

This interactive session aims to answer a key question: What does it actually take for a young farmer or food entrepreneur to achieve a breakthrough in the food system, and how do we create the conditions for thousands more young people to do the same? Through real-world stories of young farmers and food entrepreneurs from diverse contexts, participants will examine the breakthrough moments that transformed an idea into a thriving enterprise, the barriers that had to be overcome, and the levers that unlocked progress.
