Innovate UK has launched a Global Business Innovation Programme (GBIP) to help UK Agri-Tech SMEs pursue growth and innovation opportunities through collaboration with New Zealand peers.

It will help up to 15 innovation-focused UK businesses, who will be developing solutions to common industry challenges such as the need for more efficient and precision farming through robotics and satellite data.

Each selected business will get a chance to:

●attend a market visit to New Zealand, including the southern hemisphere’s largest agricultural event - Fieldays

●participate in joint activities with New Zealand cohorts both in-market and in the UK during an inward visit from New Zealand in September 2022
