The 2nd IEEE Conference on Agrifood Electronics (CAFE 2024), took place between 26-28 of September 2024, in the historic city of Xanthi, Greece, where it welcomed the global community of researchers, industry experts, and innovators to engage in a dynamic and forward-thinking discourse.

This event promised to be a landmark in the agri-food technology sector. The distinguished IEEE Conference on AgriFood Electronics (CAFE 2024) emerged as the epitome of innovation in electronics applied to the AgriFood value chain. At the heart of this conference lied a vision to harness cutting-edge electronics and sensor technology to revolutionize the entire food chain—from smart, precision agriculture to advanced processing and retail stages. This conference was not just about technological advancement; it’s a platform where electronics meet ecology, enabling stakeholders across the food chain to engage in meaningful dialogue with nature. By focusing on solutions that address Climate Change and optimize Natural Resource utilization, CAFE 2024 aimed to empower farmers and industry players alike to foster a sustainable, environmentally conscious approach to food production and distribution.

CAFE 2024 was committed to offering a premier platform for showcasing the latest research, developments, and emerging trends in agrifood electronics. This conference was dedicated to exploring the intricate connections between nanotechnology and agrifood electronics, emphasizing how these nano-scale advancements can revolutionize agricultural practices, food production, and food safety.

Anticipated topics included:

  • Precision Agriculture
  • IoT and AI in Agriculture
  • Sustainable Agriculture Systems
  • Robotics in Agriculture
  • Advanced Sensing Technologies
  • Automation in Agriculture

Beyond presentations and academic discourse, CAFE 2024 served as an energetic hub for networking and collaboration. Attendees had numerous chances to build connections through workshops, panel discussions, and informal gatherings, fostering an environment of knowledge exchange and professional growth.

THEROS project along with CiROCCO EU Project, showcased their communication and dissemination material in the ICCS booth in the conference allocated area.

THEROS representatives from the coordinating team of ICCS, had the chance to exchange and share views towards shaping a future where technology and sustainability converge to create a resilient and efficient Agri-Food system!

Both projects were also spotlighted during the 2nd IEEE CAS Industry Forum on Agri-Food Electronics on September 28, where academia and industry came together to discuss practical applications, forge partnerships, and push the boundaries of innovation in Agri-tech!
