2025 Hort Connections Conference, Ginger Grower Sponsorship
About
The AgriFutures Ginger Program is sponsoring up to five ginger levy payer growers to attend the 2025 Hort Connections Conference, in Brisbane QLD. The sponsorship will cover, for each grower, the conference pass, field tour, Perfection Fresh breakfast entry and Gala Dinner entry.
Hort Connections takes place from 5-6 June 2025 (with the field trips on 4 June) at the Brisbane Convention Centre.
Hort Connections is the premiere horticulture conference and trade show in Australia and New Zealand. With an extensive trade floor, insightful speaker sessions throughout the two days and historically well attended networking events, ginger growers can benefit from the connections and insights they would gain from the conference.
As the conference is in Brisbane this year, the AgriFutures Ginger Program wants to leverage the opportunity for ginger growers to attend the conference and gain valuable insights.
Applicants must be a current ginger levy paying grower and have been paying the ginger levy for a minimum of three years. Your status may be confirmed with the relevant bodies.
