Accelerating Livestock Innovation for Growth and Impact

The Animal AgTech Innovation Summit returns to Fort Worth, Texas on March 30–31, 2027, bringing together the decision-makers transforming animal agriculture across beef, dairy, swine and poultry from farm to market.

As livestock businesses respond to rising costs, labor shortages, disease risk, supply chain pressure and growing consumer demand for protein, the need for practical innovation has never been greater. The 2027 summit connects the people who develop, finance, deploy and buy the technologies that improve productivity, strengthen resilience and create new value across the livestock supply chain.

Through producer-led case studies covering every major species, the program focuses on what it takes to move innovation from promising concept to commercial reality. From animal health, nutrition and genetics to AI, automation, regenerative systems and circularity, the emphasis will be on real-world use cases on what’s working and what it takes to adopt at scale.

Now in its eighth year, the Summit brings together over 500 senior executives, from producers, integrators, processors, food companies, retailers, and veterinarians to technology, animal health, nutrition and genetics companies, investors, start-ups and researchers, as well as major protein buyers. Alongside the program, curated networking and one-to-one meetings will connect the businesses developing innovation with the organizations able to test, adopt, fund and commercialize it.
