“Our decision to host this event in Israel stems from the country’s ability to sustain and thrive with limited natural resources,’’ said Chen Lichtenstein, CFO of Syngenta Group.

The meeting showcased a broad range of promising agricultural innovations including irrigation, genetics and breeding, biostimulants, and the role of digital technology and robotics in cultivation, crop monitoring and harvesting. In Tel Aviv, in partnership with Israel’s Start-Up Nation Central - a non-profit group that connects Israeli innovators with business, government and NGO leaders from around the world - Syngenta Group and its Israel-based crop-protection business ADAMA hosted more than 30 Israeli start-ups and seven leading research institutes. Syngenta Group plans to convene similar gatherings at tech and innovation hubs around the world. Driven by that spirit, the company recently convened “Innovating Together” in Tel Aviv, a three-day conference with Israeli innovators and research scientists to exchange insights into ways advanced agriculture can address the global food crisis and climate change.

Collaboration and innovation are at the heart of Syngenta Group’s approach to global agriculture.
