About This Event

Two days. One global room. Meet the women and allies shaping the food economy and the people you could build, trade, collaborate and grow. Some conversations are worth travelling for. On 28–29 October 2026, London becomes the meeting point for women and allies working across the global food economy. The Women in Food & Agribusiness Global Summit 2026 brings founders, business leaders, policymakers, investors, researchers, innovators, farmers, manufacturers, retailers, exporters, development organisations and emerging talent into one room. Not simply to listen. To meet. To exchange. To explore what could happen together. Under the theme At the Table: Feeding the Future of the Food Economy, the Summit is built around the conversations, connections and ideas shaping where food and agribusiness go next. Come looking for a new market and meet someone who understands how to enter it. Come looking for a partner and start a conversation that continues after London. Discover an innovation you hadn't seen before. Meet a researcher solving a problem your business is facing. Connect with people working across trade, technology, finance, policy, production, processing and retail. Because sometimes one introduction is worth the entire journey. What happens in the room? Expect two days of high-level conversations, interactive panels, roundtables, innovation showcases, exhibitions and purposeful networking — with space deliberately created for people to actually meet and talk. You'll have opportunities to: Build relationships across countries, sectors and markets Meet potential collaborators, partners, buyers and industry connections Discover businesses, products, research and emerging technologies Exchange ideas directly with decision-makers and practitioners Explore opportunities across trade, innovation, investment and market access Strengthen your international network Put your work, business or expertise in front of a wider global community And when the Summit concludes, the celebration begins. On the evening of 29 October, the WiFAI Global Awards will recognise remarkable women and allies contributing to the future of food and agribusiness. Know someone whose work deserves to be seen? Nominate them. And if you're the one doing the work, don't wait for someone else to put your name forward. Your seat is waiting. You can read about WiFAI online. You can follow the conversations afterwards. Or you can be in the room where they begin. London · 28–29 October 2026 Choose your experience and join us at the table.
