E Tipu: The New Zealand Future Food and Fibre Summit 2025

E Tipu means ‘to grow’ – both literally and figuratively. It’s a powerful theme at the heart of this cornerstone event for New Zealand’s agrifood sector.

E Tipu 2025 is more than a summit, t’s a call to action for farmers, growers, innovators, and changemakers who are passionate about the future of food and fibre.

When:

26 – 28 May 2025

Where:

Fly Palmy Arena

Palmerston North

Why Attend?

E Tipu 2025 offers a vibrant, immersive experience designed to help tackle some of the most pressing—and sometimes uncomfortable—questions facing the sector today.

Be Inspired: Experience a bold new summit format that goes beyond traditional presentations.
Make Connections: Network with thought leaders, innovators, farmers, growers, and customers from across the full value chain.
Drive Change: Explore new ideas, forge partnerships, and collaborate on solutions that will shape the future of food production and consumption.

This is not just about sharing ideas, it’s about igniting innovation, building capability, and converting critical thinking into collective action.

Launch of Agribusiness Agenda

This year, Cooperative Business NZ partner KPMG will launch their highly anticipated Agribusiness Agenda at E Tipu 2025—a major departure from its usual unveiling at Fieldays.

This annual report is widely recognised as a national conversation starter for the agrifood sector. It reflects the insights of many co-operative leaders, gathered through surveys and interviews, and is typically launched with a high-profile breakfast event.
