Join the City of Surrey and the Surrey & White Rock Board of Trade for the Mayor’s Forum on the Future of Agriculture in Surrey, a dynamic gathering of leaders from government, industry, and academia to shape the future of agri-innovation in our region.
This forum will explore how Surrey can strengthen its position as a hub for agri-tech investment, research, and entrepreneurship – driving sustainable growth and technological advancement within the agriculture sector. Through dialogue and collaboration, participants will help identify opportunities and challenges that will inform the development of Surrey’s AgriTech Strategy, an initiative focused on fostering innovation, resilience, and food security.
The event will feature keynote addresses from Mayor Brenda Locke and the Hon. Lana Popham, BC’s Minister of Agriculture and Food, along with insights from an expert industry panel.
Together, we’ll envision how Surrey can cultivate the next generation of agricultural innovation – from smart farming and automation to green technologies and circular food systems.
