World Agri-Tech Innovation Summit 2026
Unlock the Power of AI Across the Agriculture & Food Value Chain The agri-food industry is being rewritten, and AI is the driving force. At World Agri-Tech Innovation Summit 2026, Tavant brings its full AgTech capability to San Francisco as a Gold Sponsor — from spatial intelligence and agentic automation to custom application modernization. Join us to explore how AI is moving from pilot to competitive advantage across every layer of the agriculture value chain. Booth #27 Talk to our AI & Agritech Experts AI Benchmarking Forum Case Study Presentation Panel Discussion Robotics & Autonomy What We’re Bringing to World Agri-Tech Innovation Summit Agentic AI & Automation Intelligent agents that automate complex agricultural workflows: from field operations to supply chain decisions. Data Engineering & Geo-Spatial Insights Turning satellite imagery, sensor data, and multimodal inputs into spatial intelligence that’s reusable at scale. Custom Application Development & Modernization Purpose-built AgTech applications that modernize legacy systems and accelerate digital transformation across the value chain. AI Benchmarking in AgTech Forum: Case Study Presentation Shawn Butler Director, Technology & Architecture From Maps to Decisions: Scaling Spatial Analytics for Real-World Agriculture » Forum: AI Benchmarking in AgTech Forum Monday, March 16 | 12:30 pm – 13:10 pm Geospatial AI has long been built as one-off models: predicting yield, flagging a condition, answering a single question. Tavant is changing that. In this case study session, Shawn Butler will show how general-purpose spatial AI, trained on aggregated multimodal and geospatial data — is making spatial intelligence reusable, scalable, and production-ready across agronomics, supply-chain optimization, policy planning, and disaster response. Key Takeaways: How multimodal spatial AI moves beyond one-off models to reusable intelligence Combining satellite imagery, aerial data, and machine inputs for high-fidelity predictions Where spatial AI creates the most measurable impact across the agri-food value chain Real-time inference at scale — what it takes and what it unlocks Register Now Thought Leadership Session Rajeev Sharma Head of AgTech Practice Robotics & Autonomy: The New Agricultural Workforce » Forum: Main Stage, Auditorium Tuesday, March 17 | 11:15 am – 11:55 am The farm of the future won’t be built on tools. It will be built on systems. Rajeev Sharma joins leaders from Kubota North America, CNH, and Agzen on the Main Stage to tackle the hardest questions in agri-robotics — from AI-accelerated autonomous behavior to system-level interoperability that delivers real agronomic and economic value. Speakers Rhishi Pethe Managing Partner METAL DOG LABS Lisa Jackson VP of UX & Design CNH Brett McMickell Chief Technology Officer KUBOTA NORTH AMERICA Vishnu Jayaprakash Co-Founder and CEO AGZEN Key Takeaways: How are AI & foundation models scaling true farm autonomy? What do interoperable farm systems actually look like and the ROI they drive? What role does AI-driven diagnostics have to play across fully automated farming enterprises?
