On May 14th, the Center for Research in Agricultural Genomics (CRAG) held the CRAG Business Day in its Auditorium (Barcelona). The event brought together more than 80 professionals, researchers, and representatives from 36 organizations in the agri-food sector with the aim of strengthening the connection between scientific research, the business network, and innovation.
During the day, David Lapuente moderated the first round table, titled ‘From the Laboratory to the Field’, which featured the participation of Ana Judith Martín de la Fuente (MAPA), Natalia Urzua (ANOVE), Luis Tirado Blázquez (SEO/BirdLife), and Joan Simó Cruanyes (Casa Ametller). In this session, the experts analyzed the opportunities and challenges posed by new genomic techniques for plant innovation, scientific policies, and their practical application in the agri-food sector.
