THE SECTOR
It is currently clear to everyone that areas of climate change and the environment are an important part of the world economy, and that these areas are also expected to receive more and more attention from countries and the business sector. As technology evolves and the world changes, new and fascinating opportunities are created as well as new challenges in these areas. From drip irrigation companies to start-ups focusing on crop and harvest management and technology, the growing use of smart machines and robotics has a major impact on communities, businesses, and countries around the world. In addition, the field of meat and dairy substitutes is flourishing, and various companies are developing plant varieties and food-processing processes that will meet this need.
As awareness of sustainability, resource conservation and environmental protection grows, the importance of new technologies increases to streamline production and energy use processes and to develop alternative energy sources, as well as to streamline water use and improve product recycling efficiency.
