Ploutos Being Extrovert
Agri-food fairs play a crucial role in showcasing the latest developments and innovations in the sector, providing a platform for farmers, producers, and industry experts to come together and exchange knowledge, ideas, and best practices. These fairs not only promote the growth and success of the agricultural sector, but also contribute to the economic development of the region by attracting visitors and creating business opportunities.
Ploutos, as a Horizon 2020 EU-funded project, has a vital role to play at these events, as it represents some of the most innovative and forward-thinking initiatives in the industry. Its presence highlights the EU’s commitment to sustainable agriculture and rural development and showcases the positive impact it can have on the wider community. By being present at agri-food fairs, Ploutos can share its expertise and promote its initiatives to a wider audience, increasing visibility and awareness, leading to a greater success and impact.
