The global and national food system has evolved considerably over the last few decades. With the emergence of smart technologies, food systems are set to evolve even faster in this new SDG-led Decade of Action. Agritech and foodtech accelerators across the globe continue to drive innovation along the food lifecycle. Disruptive technologies will no doubt change how we grow, process, store and retail food. The future of food is both exciting and unpredictable.
