Save the date: 34th edition of the SIVAL!

Over the last few years, the SIVAL has vastly increased its offer and has expanded its development at an international level with AGtech as its common thread. The SIVAL will be pursuing its dynamic strategy throughout this 34th edition: 4000m? more in 2020: The SIVAL is increasing its show area again in order to create room for new exhibitors. Its international development is materialising with a pavilion for Italian exhibitors as part of the partnership with the Italian MACFRUT Show, launched at the SIVAL 2019. The first day of the Show will be highlighted by the VEGEPOLYS VALLEY Business convention, the VIBE (Vegepolys International Business Event) with the BtoB programme of targeted appointments. Some new foreign delegations and also international buyers (? Hosted buyers ?) will be present at the Show in order to increase the international business opportunities for the SIVAL?S exhibitors. The AGTech, featuring all the latest trends for development in agriculture, will be one of the major recurring threads with even more innovations in the digital, robotics and decision-making tool sectors.Spearheading these trends will be the SIVAL Innovation and Agreen Startup Competitions. They will be taking place over the show?s three days. The former will be rewarding businesses for their innovations in equipment or specialist plant production services. The latter invites candidates to participate in a 48 hour innovation marathon.New for 2020, a convivial and networking evening that will take place on the 14 January at the Centre de Congr?s. It will also provide the opportunity to discuss the AGTech?s challenges.
