The summer of 2022 may change everything in terms of how we think about traditional agriculture in Europe. Record temperatures and reduced precipitation across the continent have resulted in a drought never before recorded at these latitudes. But all is not lost. Companies and research institutes working in controlled environment agriculture are constantly developing innovations to mitigate the effects of climate change. Vertical farming offers a resource-efficient part of the bigger solution.

The guests of the opening event will be treated to Vera® farm tours and delicious food prepared from vertically farmed produce. The event takes place in Calgary, Canada on September 8th.
