The Food & Agro Conference, organised by BNP Paribas Bank Polska, brought together experts, producers, processors, and distributors to collectively reflect on the future of the industry amidst the rapid development of AI. Much of the discussion focused on both the potential benefits and challenges associated with this technology. 4CF The Futures Literacy Company also contributed to these reflections. Kacper Nosarzewski and Katarzyna Figiel had the pleasure of leading an interactive session with the audience titled AI on the Plate – Who’s Pulling the Strings? Future Scenarios.

Food & Agro Conference 2024 marks an important step in understanding the role of AI in the agri-food sector. As Bartosz Urbaniak aptly noted in his speech: “Technology is the answer, but what was the question?” By asking the right questions, Poland can surely find its competitive advantages in the emerging technology market. Prof. Aleksandra Przegalińska, who participated in the final debate of the conference alongside Prof. Andrzej Dragan, sees these opportunities precisely in the agri-food sector.
