2026 CPEW: Steering Global Agriculture into a New Era
As the preeminent forum at the intersection of agriculture and agrochemicals, CPEW enters its tenth year as the definitive platform for strategic dialogue and partnership. Rooted in China with a truly global reach, it convenes industry leaders, innovators, and policymakers to address the sector's most pressing challenges and opportunities.
The 2026 forum centers on a pivotal industry transition: the shift from competing on "Cost Advantage" to commanding "Innovation Sovereignty." This evolution demands a fundamental rethinking of value creation, R&D paradigms, and global market strategy.
A Historic Milestone: The Dawn of China's Original Innovation Era
CPEW 2026 will host the inaugural launch ceremony of "China's First Year of Original Agrochemical Innovation" — marking the moment Chinese-developed molecules move from pipeline to global presence. We invite the global industry to witness it firsthand.
Building on the core topics, 2026 CPEW will dissect how to construct a Resilient Growth Framework capable of weathering geopolitical, regulatory, and supply chain volatilities.
Join a curated gathering of executives and experts for two days of incisive keynotes, focused discussions, and high-level networking. CPEW 2026 is where the agenda for the next chapter of global agriculture is set.
