9th Annual Young Leaders Conference

ATLANTA – The World Affairs Council of Atlanta Young Leaders (YL) will present its ninth annual conference on Saturday, February 25th, 2017. The theme for this year’s all-day program, which will be held at the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, is “Agricultural Solutions for Tomorrow: Biotechnology, Agribusiness & Climate Smart Ag.” The conference will focus on the multi-faceted challenges and opportunities of the global agricultural community. From seed development to international commodity markets, these innovations are transforming the way crops are grown, transported, and consumed. Agriculture is changing rapidly affecting the lives of ordinary citizens around the world. Through keynote speakers and panel discussions involving business, government and research leaders, the conference will inform participants about the ways technology is impacting how we grow, trade, and consume agricultural goods.

Conference panels will focus on the business of agriculture, financing and commodity prices, balancing the need of food security while adapting to and mitigating climate change, and the ethics of agricultural development.
