Kom til inspirationsdag om fødevareklyngens eksportmuligheder, mød nøglepolitikere til dialog om eksportpotentialer, og få nyeste perspektiver på centrale eksportmarkeder.
Danmarks fødevareklynge befinder sig i en tid, hvor usikkerhed på internationale markeder er stigende. Det understreger vigtigheden af at stå tæt sammen omkring eksportarbejdet. Handel og eksport er omdrejningspunktet for fødevareklyngen. Den geopolitiske situation er forandret og skaber nye udfordringer for samhandel og samarbejde.
Samtidig ligger der oplagte muligheder for Danmark i den grønne omstilling og mere bæredygtighed i produktionen ikke mindst med afsæt i Trepartsaftalen om ’et Grønt Danmark’. Samlet skaber det et behov for en målrettet og styrket indsats for at sikre fødevareklyngens internationale position.
På Fødevareklyngens Eksportdag 2024 vil eksporterende og eksportparate virksomheder få ny viden og inspiration til nye muligheder for eksport med perspektiver fra både politikere, virksomheder og forskere.
