Wharf42 & Platform10 were delighted to attend and exhibit at last week’s BPIA Annual Meeting in Sacramento.
As well as exhibiting at the event, the BPIA Board hosted a ‘Platform10 Grower Partnership Initiative: Strengthening Industry Collaboration’ breakout session. At the standing room only session, delegates shared views as to how BPIA and its members could in the words of the Board – recruit experts who will be part of a governance team to provide guidance to the strategic development, management, and oversight of this multi-year initiative.
With an existing commitment already secured to support grower-led field trials in California, BPIA’s commitment to support Platform10’s US operations is significant. With a membership that spans the whole breadth of the Biological Products Industry in the US, it is helping create a ‘Coalition of the Willing’ to support growers as they face increasing regulatory and consumer pressures for ‘more biologicals, less chemistry’.
Wharf42 and Platform10 are grateful for the support of the BPIA Board in helping build this significant industry initiative.
