Want to find out what the Agri-ProFocus network can contribute to the success of your organisation and/or business? Or what you can contribute to the network in return? We are organising a One-stop Shopping event: a lively marketplace to collect and share all that you need when promoting agri-entrepreneurship!

Are you interested in connecting with the Agri-Hubs? Do you want to interact with professionals knowing all about gender in value chains, farmers’ access to finance, or producer organisations? Also longing to share your ideas, programmes and experience with a larger audience? Curious about our strategy for 2013-2016?

This is the opportunity to put your experience centre-stage!
