UK, How to Enter (Agritech)
Programme draft — SHOW YOUR INTEREST
Nordic Edge invites members to a targeted, curated market programme for the UK — two intensive days in the Midlands, 21–22 October 2026.
The United Kingdom is one of the most dynamic markets for agricultural technology, driven by new regulatory frameworks and a strong focus on sustainability. In collaboration with AgriFoodTech Norway, Innovation Norway and British market experts UK Agritech Centre, we are setting up a compressed "How to Enter" programme. We build the programme around your company: we open the doors, connect you with the right players, and arrange meetings that would otherwise take months to set up on your own.
1. Digital Kick-off & Market Readiness (home-based)
Before departure, we run a hybrid workshop to prepare your UK market strategy — with insights from experts in the British market.
Market Intelligence: Review of the British landscape, subsidy schemes and technology needs
Operational Setup: Practical introduction to company formation, law and recruitment in the UK
Value Prop Check: How to tailor your pitch to British decision-makers
2. Market Programme: Midlands (2 days)
Day 1 — Market, meetings and introductions
Warm introductions: We connect you directly with potential partners, distributors and industry players — relationships we vouch for
UK clusters and industry actors: Meetings facilitated by Nordic Edge through our British network — including the UK Agri-Tech Centre, UK Urban Agritech and BOFIN
New business models: An introduction to the UK market for biodiversity and carbon credits — how farmers are paid for nature work, and where Norwegian technology fits in
Day 2 — Company visits and relationship building
Site visit: We plan a visit to a leading British innovation hub or test farms
Company visits: Visits from relevant British companies and potential partners on their home ground
Action plan: We facilitate a structured debrief and a way-forward plan for each participating company
After the programme: Nordic Edge produces a consolidated market report based on the programme's meetings and insights, shared with all participants.
Why participate?
Efficiency: Months of market work condensed into two intensive days
Network: Direct access to an ecosystem that takes time to build on your own
Community: As part of a Nordic Edge delegation, you stand stronger when engaging with British stakeholders
Next step: Is this relevant for your company?
To secure your place and give us time to tailor the right meetings for you, we'd appreciate hearing from you by 10. September 2026.
