Dear Builder,

Have you ever thought about the impact of agriculture on our daily lives, and the possibilities that arise when we merge it with the dynamic spirit of innovation?

Picture this: a picturesque village where traditions of agriculture and the future of food production seamlessly converge. From November 17th to 19th, BGI and Food4Sustainability organized the 6th edition of i-Danha Food Lab - an immersive 3-day annual event in Monsanto (Idanha-a-Nova) that gathers producers, startups, researchers, companies and consumers to share their backgrounds and businesses.

Here are some highlights of the event: 

🚞 Scenic journey to Monsanto aboard the 'Green Train', with the presence of the Secretary of State for Tourism, Commerce and Services, Nuno Fazenda;

💡i-Dare Challenge, where dynamic groups of participants brainstormed solutions for the pressing challenges facing the agri-food industry;

🏆Biolog Awards, where farmers received recognition for their sustainable and organic products;

🍏 'Flavors of Idanha' Dinner, an amazing gastronomic experience with local and organic products;

🔍 Mycological Visit to Vale Feitosoguided by the expertise of Agricultural Engineer and Mycology Specialist, José Luís Gravito Henriques.

You can already pre-register for next year's edition here!

We look forward to see you there,

The BGI Team
