Indoor Ag-Con’s upcoming keynote panel, “The Ever-Changing Business Model of Controlled Environment Agriculture Farming,” promises to highlight the conference’s programming. Featuring three leaders in the field – Steve Platt, Matt Ryan, and Dave Vosburg – and moderated by Vonnie Estes, the panel will delve into the latest trends and shifts in the business of controlled environment agriculture. As the industry continues to evolve and mature, professionals in the space need to stay up-to-date on the latest business models and strategies.
“From greenhouse growing operations and indoor vertical farms to heavy labor and automation, the CEA industry has an identity crisis. The business model is often in flux between being a product provider or a technology provider,” says Brian Sullivan, CEO of Indoor Ag-Con. “Our panel of CEA industry leaders will explore the reasons for this shift and offer predictions on where the business model is headed in the future.”
In addition to this exciting panel, Indoor Ag-Con 2023 is a must-attend event for those interested in the future of farming. With educational tracks focused on growers, trends and innovation, and funding and guidance, attendees can explore all aspects of the indoor farming ecosystem. The conference will also feature new debate formats and fireside chats, providing fresh and engaging ways for participants to connect and learn.

Furthermore, the co-location of Indoor Ag-Con with the National Grocers Association (NGA) Show promises to create even more networking and business opportunities for attendees and exhibitors. In addition, visitors to both events can explore the exhibit halls of both conferences with a complete conference pass, further enhancing the opportunities for learning and connection.
Finally, with 174 booths from leading vertical farming and controlled environment agriculture companies, this year’s Indoor Ag-Con promises to be the most extensive gathering of its kind in the event’s ten-year history. Attendees will have the chance to see the latest innovations in the field and connect with industry leaders and experts. With complimentary luncheons, a show floor cocktail reception, and other networking opportunities, Indoor Ag-Con 2023 is set to be an event not to be missed for those interested in the future of farming.
