I warmly welcome you to be part of Asia’s most impactful industry event in Asia for agri-food innovation.
Singapore’s agri-food industry continues to defy limitations posed by its scarce natural resources, turning challenges into opportunities through innovation, research, and technology. With strong governmental support, accelerator funding, and advancements in food science, our ecosystem is growing rapidly, revolutionising the way we produce and consume food. Now is the time to be at the forefront of this transformation.
Against this backdrop, the Agri-Food Tech Expo Asia (AFTEA) is more than just an event—it is an effective gateway to business growth, strategic partnerships, and new market opportunities. As the leading industry platform in Asia, AFTEA connects visionaries, industry leaders, and innovators, creating an unparalleled space for collaboration, networking, exposure, and deal-making.
At AFTEA 2024, 241 global exhibitors were present across the show floor, including 19 international and industry pavilions, engaging with over 6,800 attendees from 70 countries and regions. This dynamic participation underscored the event’s role as a global nexus for industry players, fostering meaningful connections and business opportunities. AFTEA 2025 promises to build on this momentum, providing an even larger platform for businesses to showcase their solutions and reach decision-makers across the agri-food value chain.
Returning for its fourth edition, AFTEA 2025 will highlight groundbreaking developments across key areas, including Novel Food Technology, Smart Farming, Alternative Proteins, Aquaculture, Food Safety & Sustainability, and Technological Solutions. This year, we are excited to spotlight emerging trends such as alternative food for pets, blue economy, controlled environment agriculture, climate tech, insect protein, and more—ensuring that attendees gain direct access to the latest advancements and industry disruptors shaping the future of food production.
The return of the Agri-Food Tech World Championship to the AFTEA’s Founders Hub stage will further energise the industry, building on its success as a major crowd-puller in 2024. This event offers early-stage start-ups a competitive arena to present transformative solutions and gain international recognition. Complementing this, the Sandbox will feature exhibitors presenting real-world use cases, demonstrating how their technologies and solutions are actively shaping the future of the agri-food ecosystem. This is a chance for our exhibitors to highlight new innovations, share expertise, and engage directly with their target markets.
Supported by the Asia-Pacific Society for Cellular Agriculture (APAC-SCA), the Cultivated Meat Pavilion continues to serve as a catalyst for education, collaboration, and the acceleration of cultivated meat adoption in Asia. Alongside it, the Living Lab Tech Showcase pavilion will provide attendees with an immersive experience, offering a deep dive into cutting-edge agri-food innovations. These industry pavilions will enable participants to explore emerging technologies and gain insights into the evolving ecosystem.
Whether you are an industry veteran, an aspiring entrepreneur, or a curious newcomer, AFTEA welcomes you to explore, connect, and contribute to the transformation of the agri-food sector.
Sincerely,
David Lim
