Brokerage events
Bringing together stakeholders and innovators, offering solutions
The brokerage events (B2Bs) aim to identify available innovations for agroforestry and put those who could benefit from adopting such innovations in direct contact with innovators and researchers. The objective of the B2Bs is also to lay the foundations for future innovation projects by providing an opportunity for businesses, associations, research institutions, policy makers and other professionals in agriculture and food production to meet. Such connections between participants and presenters allow the establishment of new contacts and the sharing of information on innovative ideas, machinery, techniques and services. In total, 10 brokerage events are being organized: 4 in Lebanon, 4 in Jordan and 2 in Greece.

2nd B2B Event on Multifunctional Olive Systems in Lebanon
B2B
The Mediterranean region leads the world in olive and olive oil production and consumption. However, the increasing demand for olives and olive oil requires the expansion of growing areas and an increase in production. Accordingly, new technologies and innovative production systems are becoming essential.
In order to provide additional support for stakeholders in the olive sector after the first successful B2B event held by the LIVINGAGRO Project consortium in July, the Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Chania (MAICH) and the Lebanese Agricultural Research Institute (LARI) are organizing a second B2B event in Lebanon on November 15, 2022.
During this second event, experts from Italy, Greece and Lebanon will present their work on many innovations related to agroforestry in olive growing and olive oil production, sharing their expertise with many stakeholders.
Economic stakeholders, decision makers and research stakeholders involved with the olive and olive oil sector are invited to participate in the event, which will be divided into two parts. The morning session will be dedicated to presenting innovations from several Mediterranean countries, while the afternoon session is reserved for roundtables aiming to deepen the discussions among innovators and stakeholders. Stakeholders will also have the opportunity to meet with each of the innovators in one-to-one meetings to discuss the problems they are facing and their needs for innovations to improve the productivity of their orchards and the quality of their production.
The Cross Border Living Laboratories for Agroforestry (LIVINGAGRO) Project is funded by the European Union through the ENI CBC Med Programme and implemented in Italy, Greece, Lebanon and Jordan. The project aims to support education, research and development, innovation, and technology transfer, including sharing research results, by establishing two Living Labs, one for multifunctional olive systems (Living Lab 1) and the other for grazed woodlands (Living Lab 2). This B2B event is part of Living Lab 1.
Innovations for grazed woodlands
B2B
The B2B Event – Innovations for grazed woodlands is planned in the framework of the Cross Border Living Laboratories for Agroforestry (LIVINGAGRO) project, funded by the European Union through the ENI CBC Med Programme and organized by the Lebanese Agricultural Research Institute (LARI) in collaboration with the Forest Agency for Land and Environment of Sardinia (FoReSTAS). The main aim of the event is to support education, research and development, innovation, technology transfer, and publishing and marketing research results.
Farmers, entrepreneurs, local administrators, researchers, private companies, policy makers and multiple stakeholders interested in agroforestry issues, especially in the field of grazed woodlands, will have the opportunity to participate, whether onsite or online, in a series of discussions, round tables and one-on-one meetings highlighting the latest scientific research and implementing state-of-the-art innovations related to grazed woodlands that contributes to the development of the sector.
With its open innovation approach, LIVINGAGRO project will help different stakeholders during this one-day B2B event in identifying the types of problems facing this sector, as well as underlining and co-designing the most workable technological solutions that maximize the ecosystem functionality of the grazed forest and enhance the many aspects and resources that agroforestry in grazed woodland can provide.
Event Programme
During the morning session, a professional panel of acclaimed guest speakers, including representatives from LARI, LIVINGAGRO consortium and other research institutions, will be sharing insights on different topics and innovations related to agroforestry in order to help stakeholders to increase profitability, sustainability, and biodiversity in the face of limited resources and environmental constraints. These discussion sessions will tackle issues regarding adaptive grazing management, reconciling grazing with trees, mixtures for quality pasture, shade tolerant species, remote sensing techniques to monitor oak forests, thinning and pruning trees in silvopastoral systems, land imprinter for rangelands rehabilitation coupled with rangeland species seeder and, hydroponic fodder system.
In the afternoon, all attendees are invited to participate in an open discussion during two round table sessions on grazed woodlands and forest management as well as to schedule a one-to-one meeting with the aim of getting more information about the innovations of greatest interest with one of the guest speakers of the event.
B2B Event – Multifunctional Olive Systems
B2B
A B2B event on the olive and olive oil sector in Lebanon, including the presentation of the latest innovations to increase production and reduce costs
The Lebanese Agricultural Research Institute (LARI), within the Cross Border Living Laboratories for Agroforestry (LIVINGAGRO) Project funded by the European Union through the ENI CBC Med Programme and implemented in Italy, Lebanon, Greece and Jordan, organize a B2B event on the olive and olive oil sector in Lebanon with the aim of supporting education, research and development, innovation, technology transfer, and publishing and marketing research results. The event will be held on Thursday, July 21, 2022 at the Smallville Hotel, Badaro-Beirut.
The project aims to establish two cross-border living laboratories, and to enhance cooperation between research institutions, farmers and their associations, industries, the private sector and all users in general. The project focuses mainly on agroforestry, taking into consideration multifunctional olive growing systems (Living Lab 1) and grazed woodlands (Living Lab 2).
During this event, a list of available innovations will be presented, and ways to implement them in olive orchards and in the olive and olive oil sector will be discussed.
The event also aims to highlight the latest scientific research related to multifunctional olive systems that contributes to the development of the sector, and to encourage cooperatives and agricultural institutions to adopt new agricultural practices and cooperate with each other.
This event will help set up the necessary bases to start implementing state-of-the-art innovations by providing the opportunity to invest in business and opening new horizons for associations among research centers, agricultural policy makers and other interested stakeholders in agriculture and food production.
The participation of stakeholders in this workshop can lead to wide-ranging cooperation and thus can help impel the olive and olive oil sector in Lebanon toward a different level based on reducing production costs, improving quality and increasing financial returns.
