Annual Learning Event 2026

About the Event

The AMEA Annual Learning Event brings together our global network to share the latest thinking, tools, and evidence shaping Business Development Services for farmer organizations and agri-SMEs.

Over two half-days, speakers from across the AMEA network will present contrasting approaches, case studies, and emerging lessons — followed by facilitated breakout sessions designed to deepen debate and surface priorities for future learning.

Day 2 – Wednesday 24 June: Scaling BDS Best Practice

⏱ 14:00 to 16:30 CEST

Day 2 examines what it takes to transform BDS markets at scale — from quality assurance and cost-effectiveness to lessons from India’s 10,000 FPO initiative, cost-share facilities in Uganda, and approaches to reaching and supporting young agri-entrepreneurs.
