Panel | Scaling Resilient Agriculture Across Europe I From Ambition to Transformation: Climate, Economic and Social Impact at Scale
Resilient agriculture is gaining momentum across Europe—but the real challenge is turning promising innovation into system-wide transformation. New models can demonstrate what is possible; landscapes create the conditions for change at scale; and partnerships bring together the capabilities, investment, and reach that no single actor can achieve alone. Drawing on the experience of EIT Food’s landscape projects, this panel debate brings together voices from farmer advisory, corporate sourcing, manufacturing, and technical implementation to explore what it takes to move from pilots to lasting impact. How can landscape collaboration align farmer needs with business priorities, unlock financing, drive implementation, and deliver measurable climate, economic, and social outcomes? And how can we build partnerships strong enough to turn local progress into a Europe-wide movement for resilient agriculture? Together, the speakers will explore how landscapes can become the engine for scaling innovation—and creating lasting value for farmers, businesses, communities, and the environment.
