Meet The Farmers Virtual Summit
Is an online Conference & Matchmaking Forum focused on linking the farmers to their suppliers, markets, industry professionals and regulators. As well as expanding access to trends and issues in agriculture and technology. The Summit aims to bring together some of the most important industry players and advance forward in order to accelerate the spread of knowledge, create new connections, and generate ideas, leads and sales to develop and expand the industry. The innovative nature of the event, necessitated by the adversity being faced worldwide and another reminder of the role of technology can play in agriculture, we will be covering a wide range of industry relevant topics with an impressive line-up of local and international speakers.
In contrast to other conferences and meetings, we are squarely focused on reducing barriers to access with simple, low-cost registration and the ability to engage from anywhere in Zambia and the world at large. Our innovative platform for the Forum will create an interactive environment where attendees can match-make with their targets, pose questions, vote, exhibitors can showcase their products through innovative online mediums. In addition we are introducing targeted one to one to many presentations and engagements through modern day technology.
Who Are Our Exhibitors?
Top suppliers from Zambia & the region will showcase their products and services during one-on-one and one-to-many online exhibitions, demos and presentations, namely:
•Agro chemical suppliers
•Farmers input
•Irrigation & Water Management
•Equipment & Technology suppliers
•Livestock & Fisheries feed and chemicals
•Seed Companies
•Alternative Energy Solutions
•Storage Solutions
•Financial Institutions
Exhibition Format
This will be done using globally renowned and award winning technology partners namely, EventBank© and Out Smart Marketing.
How it Works: Once registered for the event, a supplier/exhibitor will see a list (showing profiles) of registered farmers/visitors and vice versa. The matchmaking software will suggest suppliers or farmers you can meet on a webinar platform based on who matches your preference. The exhibitor/visitor can accept or decline a meeting request but only the exhibitor determines if meetings are one on one or one to many. The latter works better for presentations. Visitors can download exhibitors brochures, business cards etc.
Top Buyers from Zambia and within the region will be able to meet farmers to discuss production, challenges, contracts to enhance production of key products.

This question is important for the Sales Team to understand the Business of the Client (KYC). Understand their Vision, Mission and Objectives of the Orgnaisation. For instance, when dealing with SEEDCO, ask these question (Who is SeedCo, what do they do, how do they fit into the MTH summit, here talk about relevance of the Summit to the organisations objective).
MTH offers unique platforms of buyers and sellers through a one stop shop. Remember this is an on-line summit, meaning it gives the client convenience of transacting business. Also talk about other global players on board like international speakers, international/local media and stakeholders.
The cost is competitive and offers value for money because of the wide networks that you are able to reach. Also remember, the fact that its an on-line summit, you will be able to transact bankable agribusiness deals at your convenience.
MTH is an entirely online Summit designed to link the farmers to their suppliers and markets as well as expand access to trends and issues in agriculture and technology. So here tell the client the process of application and registration and every other detail that will be relevant to this question. The client should feel satisfied that you have given him what he wants to be part of this great initiative.
