UK, How to Enter (Agritech)

Nordic Edge invites members to a targeted, curated market programme for the UK. Why UK? The United Kingdom is one of the most dynamic markets for agricultural technology, driven by new regulatory frameworks and a strong focus on sustainability. In collaboration with AgriFoodTech Norway, Innovation Norway and British market experts UK Agritech Centre, we are setting up a compressed "How to Enter" programme. We build the programme around your company: we open the doors, connect you with the right players and arrange meetings that would otherwise take months to set up on your own. The programme consists of three part: 21.
