Agriculture and food related technologies are becoming a larger part of CES 2022, the influential annual consumer technology trade show. Held in person Jan. 5 to 8 in Las Vegas and virtually, this year’s conference highlighted how innovators are offering solutions to problems once considered significant obstacles, most notably vertical farming and making pickup and delivery seamless.
In its 2022 trends forecast, the International Food Information Council Foundation (IFIC) said consumers in urban areas will turn to vertical agriculture in their efforts to promote sustainability, nutrition and food security. Vertical farming solutions exhibited at CES ranged from large-scale operations to in-home applications, demonstrating how interest ranges between commercial and personal applications.
Nanoco Group PLC (LON:NANO) leads the world in the research, development and large-scale manufacture of heavy metal-free nanomaterials for use in displays, lighting, vertical farming, solar energy and bio-imaging.
