Our History
In response to ballooning interest spurred by the financial crisis, Global AgInvesting launches the first investors’ conference focused on the growing market for farmland investment.
The flagship program doubled in attendee size two years in a row, becoming the world's most well attended agriculture investment conference. With an expanded focus on investing across the entire value chain, the event filled a void in the market to understand investing needs to meet the overwhelming growth in global demand.
Between 2011 and 2015, Global AgInvesting expands to include events in Europe and Asia. This allows current allocators, farm and fund managers to connect around specific regional concerns while assessing agriculture as a viable, rapidly growing asset class.
According to the inaugural report created by HighQuest Partners, AUM in the global food and agriculture sector totaled more than $131 billion in 2019.
Global AgInvesting moved all 2020 offerings to digital experiences in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Today, Global AgInvesting hosts the longest running and most highly-attended events for agriculture and natural capital professionals in New York, Asia, and Europe.
