In past years, in order to be an exclusive participant in our flagship event, Global AgInvesting 2020, travel and logistical arrangements would have needed to be in place well before the conference. This year, as we offer an exciting, new virtual experience, you can register today and be at the event today! And the ability to access all that Global AgInvesting has to offer extends through the event itself and beyond, as recordings of each session will be available to all registered attendees, and networking will continue through September 30. 

Agriculture has gone mainstream. From consumer demands that are changing entire supply chains, to government actions that have stalled or changed decades-old trade agreements, to advances in science that are making lab-grown food an investment reality, food and ag are at the forefront of global discussions. And the place to learn about the latest opportunities for investing in this still nascent asset class is the annual Global AgInvesting (GAI) conference, beginning today. 

“Since 2009, GAI’s commitment to educating institutional and private investors on the compelling nature of agriculture investments has remained steadfast,” said Greg Mellinger, CEO at HighQuest Group, the hosts of GAI.
“And it has advanced to incorporate impact investing and ESG considerations, which are crucial topics for the GAI community who are both more sophisticated and more knowledgeable about the sector. GAI years ago expanded far beyond farmland to include investments in organics, alternative proteins, operating companies and controlled environment agriculture.”

The report highlights nearly 700 organizations that are investing in the F&A ector that combined had over $131 billion in Assets Under Management (AUM) in 2019.
