REENFORCE at Agri Innovation Expo 2026!

On 24 September 2026, Smart Agro Hub represented the REENFORCE project at the Agri Innovation Expo 2026, held at the Agricultural University of Athens (AUA) in Athens, Greece — one of the most dynamic agri-innovation gatherings in the Greek agricultural research calendar.

A Home Stage for REENFORCE

The Agri Innovation Expo, hosted at the AUA campus, brought together researchers, academics, innovators and agri-food professionals in a vibrant showcase of cutting-edge developments in agricultural science and technology. As the coordinating institution of REENFORCE, AUA provided a particularly meaningful setting for the project's participation — allowing the REENFORCE team to present its work to an audience that is deeply embedded in the agricultural research community and directly connected to the project's scientific ecosystem.

Smart Agro Hub's presence at the event centred on raising awareness of the REENFORCE project among the research communities in attendance — introducing participants to the project's three core research pillars, its training and secondment activities, and the broader European network of sister projects and collaborations that REENFORCE is part of.

Connecting Research with Innovation

Events like the Agri Innovation Expo play a vital role in bridging the gap between scientific research and practical agricultural innovation. By bringing together academics, researchers, startups and industry professionals under one roof, the Expo creates the conditions for exactly the kind of cross-sector exchange that drives the uptake of research outputs and accelerates the transition to more sustainable farming practices.

For REENFORCE, participation in the Agri Innovation Expo 2026 was an opportunity to reach a new and highly relevant audience at the intersection of research and innovation — and to demonstrate the project's contribution to the broader agri-innovation landscape in Greece and Europe.
