Early-Career Innovators’ Forum (ECIF) Agri-Tech Careers Morning
You will get an insight into the career trajectories of each speaker and have the chance to explore things further during the panel discussion. What we’re hoping to showcase is that there is no set path for making it into the world of agri-tech. As a vibrant and fast-paced sector, there are certainly ‘junctions’ of opportunities available, with different skillsets along the way.
Come and join us to find out!
