# Learn about the growing field of agri-tech

As technology is increasingly used in agriculture, it’s expected that the combined field will grow. And an agri-tech networking and employment mixer is being held at Newnham Campus for people to learn more about this area.

The in-person, free event on Wednesday, Nov. 13 from 4 to 7:30 p.m. will feature a panel discussion with industry professionals, representatives from a number of companies and plenty of time to network.

It’s being presented by [Applied Research](https://www.senecapolytechnic.ca/innovation/research.html), [STEM Minds](https://www.stemminds.com/), an educational enterprise based in Aurora, about 50 kilometres north of Toronto, and [Boreal Farms](https://www.borealfarms.ca/), an ag-tech solutions company based in King City, about 50 kilometres northwest of Toronto.

The event will be held in Building K \(CITE\), HELIX, Room K2000 and space is limited. For more information and to register, please visit the [STEM Minds link](https://www.stemminds.com/product/agri-tech-communications-and-networking-event-2024-2025/).
